Abstract

Background and aims

Cardiac ParaGangliomas (PGLs) are rare extra-adrenal tumours that arise from chromaffin cells of the sympathetic ganglia. PGL are often diagnosed incidentally, with no symptoms or symptoms related to cardiovascular dysfunction.

Methods

Cardiac Computed Tomography (CCT) and Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) can detect the correct morphology and position of the lesion and provide proper tissue characterization.

Nuclear medicine imaging, with Positron Emission Tomography (PET) or Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) with specific radiotracers, can evaluate the functionality of the PGL and to distinguish a secreting from a non-secreting tumour.

Results

In association with biochemical parameters, a multimodal imaging approach, not yet standardized, can be useful both in the diagnosis, in the monitoring and in the treatment planning.

Conclusions

In this systematic review, we aim to investigate the role of diagnostic imaging, in particular CCT, CMR, PET and SPECT in diagnosis, characterization and monitoring of cardiac PGLs.

心脏副神经节瘤的高级成像：系统性综述

背景和目的：心脏副神经节瘤（PGL）是一种罕见的肾上腺外肿瘤，由交感神经节的绒毛膜细胞产生。方法心脏计算机断层扫描（CCT）和心脏磁共振（CMR）可检测出病变的正确形态和位置，并提供正确的组织特征。核医学成像（正电子发射计算机断层扫描（PET）或使用特定放射性同位素的单光子发射计算机断层扫描（SPECT））可评估 PGL 的功能，并区分分泌性和非分泌性肿瘤。结论在这篇系统综述中，我们旨在研究诊断成像，尤其是 CCT、CMR、PET 和 SPECT 在诊断、表征和监测心脏 PGL 中的作用。

期刊介绍： IJC Heart & Vasculature is an online-only, open-access journal dedicated to publishing original articles and reviews (also Editorials and Letters to the Editor) which report on structural and functional cardiovascular pathology, with an emphasis on imaging and disease pathophysiology. Articles must be authentic, educational, clinically relevant, and original in their content and scientific approach. IJC Heart & Vasculature requires the highest standards of scientific integrity in order to promote reliable, reproducible and verifiable research findings. All authors are advised to consult the Principles of Ethical Publishing in the International Journal of Cardiology before submitting a manuscript. Submission of a manuscript to this journal gives the publisher the right to publish that paper if it is accepted. Manuscripts may be edited to improve clarity and expression.
