Hello Nazrana Ji,

A heart tumour, although rare, requires careful evaluation and treatment by specialists. The best approach depends on the type, size, and location of the tumor, as well as your wife’s overall health. Heart tumours are usually either benign (non-cancerous), like myxomas, or malignant (cancerous), like angiosarcomas. Treatment options often include:

  1. Surgery is usually the primary treatment for benign tumours, removing the tumour and preventing complications. Cardiac surgeons typically perform these surgeries, and outcomes are generally positive for benign cases.

  2. Doctors may sometimes recommend close monitoring if the tumour is small and does not cause symptoms. Medications may also be prescribed to manage symptoms or prevent complications.

  3. If the tumour is malignant, treatment may involve a combination of surgery, radiation, and/or chemotherapy. In some cases, a heart transplant may be considered. Additionally, if fluid buildup in the chest is causing discomfort, doctors may insert tubes to help drain the fluid and relieve symptoms.

We recommend consulting with a cardiac surgeon to discuss the best approach for your wife’s condition.

At HexaHealth, we can help you connect with highly qualified specialists and guide you through the process.
