[Capillary hemangioma of the left ventricle. A case report and review of the literature].
The authors report a case of isolated left ventricular capillary haemangioma, diagnosed after chest X-ray during a routine medical check-up showed a deformation of the left heart border. Echocardiography showed a solid well circumscribed tumour. Its vascular origin was confirmed at coronary angiography. Myocardial biopsy performed after left thoracotomy confirmed the histological diagnosis. The authors review the medical literature of this condition in the light of this rare finding.
