Objective  To explore the diagnosis accuracy of cardiac tumor and effectiveness of surgical treatment. Method  We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 103 patients with cardiac tumor in our hospital from 2011 through 2014 year. There were 65 females and 38 males, aging from 3 months to 82 years (average age of 59.71±13.80 years). We analyzed age distribution and clinical manifestation of the patients, as well as size and location of tumors. Then we compared effects of different surgical procedures. Result  There was no death during evaluation. Early postoperative complications included arrhythmia (47 patients), electrolyte disturbance (13 patients), and cardiac dysfunction (9 patients). One patient with B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma auto-discharged because of cardiac dysfunction. No relapse was obse-rved in the patients with atrial myxoma or lipoma (2 patients) during follow-up. One patient with benign myogenic tumor was lost during the follow-up. Six patients with malignant tumor were with poor long-term effect including 2 patients lost in the follow-up and 4 deaths due to tumor relapse during 1 year after surgery. Conclusion  Surgery is still the most effective and major therapy of cardiac tumor.
