To summarize the therapeutic effect of pediatric cardiac tumors.

10 children with cardiac tumors diagnosed and surgically treated in our hospital from October 1, 2013 to October 1, 2018 were collected. The age, clinical manifestations, tumor location, diagnosis, treatment, pathological classification, and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed.

Among the 10 children, 9 were boys, and 1 girl. The age ranged from 1.3 months to 9 years, with a median age of 2 years and 4 months. Most of the clinical features were chest tightness and shortness of breath. All the children underwent color Doppler echocardiography. 7 cases had complete resection of cardiac tumors, and 3 partial resection. There were 5 cases of rhabdomyoma, 1 case of fibrous tumor, 1 case of fibroblastoma, 1 case of lipoma, and 2 cases of metastatic tumors. One case died. Eight cases were followed up from 5 months to 5 years, and no recurrence was found.

The symptoms of cardiac tumors in children are atypical, and most of them are diagnosed in infants and young children. Surgical operation should be taken in time for those with obvious symptoms. The operation purpose is to restore normal hemodynamic state. The prognosis is correlated with the pathological results of the tumors.
