Clinical characteristics and outcomes of pediatric cardiac masses: A 20-year retrospective single-center experience
Pediatric cardiac tumors are predominantly benign and often managed conservatively. Rhabdomyomas should prompt evaluation for tuberous sclerosis, especially when multiple lesions are present prenatally. Echocardiography remains the cornerstone of diagnosis and follow-up, while MRI and PET-CT provide valuable complementary data.
