摘要

背景:纤维化性纵隔炎(FM)被认为是一种良性疾病，但如果进展导致肺门受压或侵犯心脏，它可能是致命的。超声心动图报告这种疾病是非常罕见的。病例介绍:我们报告了一位14岁的男性患者，他的胸部非增强计算机断层扫描显示前上纵隔有不清楚的软组织致密病变。超声心动图显示心脏被软组织病变广泛包裹。组织学证实为FM。结论:当FM影响心脏时，超声心动图可以帮助确定疾病的特征并有助于诊断。超声心动图应该被认为是一个重要的工具，以跟踪疾病的进展和指导治疗方法。

Extensive fibrotic wrapping of the heart: a rare echocardiographic diagnosis.

Background: Fibrosing mediastinitis (FM) is considered a benign disease, but it can be fatal if progression leads to compression of the hilum of the lungs or invasion of the heart. Echocardiographic reports of this disease are very rare.

Case presentation: We present a 14-year-old male patient whose non-enhanced chest computed tomography showed unclear soft-tissue dense lesions in the anterior superior mediastinum. Echocardiography showed the heart was extensively wrapped by soft tissue lesions. The histology confirmed FM.

Conclusions: When FM affects the heart, echocardiography can help to characterize the disease and aid in the diagnosis. Echocardiography should be considered an important tool to follow the progression of this disease and guide the therapeutic approach.

期刊介绍： Cardiovascular Ultrasound is an online journal, publishing peer-reviewed: original research; authoritative reviews; case reports on challenging and/or unusual diagnostic aspects; and expert opinions on new techniques and technologies. We are particularly interested in articles that include relevant images or video files, which provide an additional dimension to published articles and enhance understanding. As an open access journal, Cardiovascular Ultrasound ensures high visibility for authors in addition to providing an up-to-date and freely available resource for the community. The journal welcomes discussion, and provides a forum for publishing opinion and debate ranging from biology to engineering to clinical echocardiography, with both speed and versatility.
