Mesotelioma maligno del pericardio

Abstract

Los mesoteliomas son neoplasias malignas que se originan a partir de las células mesoteliales que recubren las cavidades serosas, siendo su localización pericárdica una de las menos frecuentes. Se presenta el caso de un paciente masculino, de 28 años de edad, acude a consulta refiriendo falta de aire, inicialmente al realizar esfuerzos físicos, pero ya incluso durante el reposo, con dolor precordial, disnea y debilidad muscular. Al examen físico presentó soplo tricuspídeo holosistólico III/VI con irradiación a los demás focos de auscultación cardíaca. Se realizaron estudios de imagen. La radiografía de tórax reveló ensanchamiento mediastinal perihiliar con contornos policíclicos. El ecocardiograma mostró masa extracardíaca que comprime cavidades derechas. Luego de tres días de evolución el paciente presentó disnea intensa y dolor precordial, fallece a causa de un paro cardio-respiratorio. Se realizó necropsia, que confirmó el diagnóstico de mesotelioma maligno del pericardio, variedad sarcomatoide. Los mesoteliomas pericárdicos son tumores raros, clínicamente heterogéneos y presentan un bajo índice de supervivencia. El conocimiento de sus manifestaciones clínicas y características anatomopatológicas resultan de importancia para el diagnóstico y tratamiento oportunos.
