Calcified amorphous tumor of the heart (cardiac CAT).
Reynolds C, Tazelaar HD, Edwards WD. Reynolds C, et al. Hum Pathol. 1997 May;28(5):601-6. doi: 10.1016/s0046-8177(97)90083-6. Hum Pathol. 1997. PMID: 9158709 Free article.
Repeat echocardiogram in two patients showed residual calcium in the region of the initial tumor. Although these lesions may represent calcified thrombi, the clinical presentation did not suggest thrombosis as the most likely explanation for their occurrence. Based …
