- There are no established risk factors for Cardiac tumors. But HIV predisposes to formation of Kaposi Sarcoma of heart.[1]
- Certain syndromes like Gorlin syndrome, Tuberous Sclerosis, LAMB, NAME, and Paragangliomas are associated with increased risk of cardiac tumors.[2]
- The presence of lung carcinoma, breast carcinoma, esophageal carcinoma, malignant lymphoma, malignant melanoma, and leukemia are risk factors for secondary cardiac tumors due to their propensity to spread to the heart. Renal Cell Carcinoma spreads to heart mainly via Inferior Vena Cava.[3]
- Malignant Melanoma has the most significant predisposition for hematogenous spread to the heart among all the tumors.[3]
Factors affecting Prognosis
- There are definitive risk factors influencing the prognosis of patients afflicted with cardiac tumors.
- The independent risk factors associated with poor prognosis of cardiac tumors include, conservative management, malignant nature of tumor, and ''biatrial'' tumors.[4]
- It is also important to note that features like age, sex, NYHA grading, leg edema, and peripheral embolism do not affect the longevity of patients with cardiac tumors. [4]
