Article Synopsis
- Accurate diagnosis and treatment of complex cardiac tumors is challenging, especially for surgical resection, but 3D reconstruction and printing can enhance pre-operative planning and care.
- The study reports two patients with rare cardiac conditions, one with cardiac angiosarcoma and the other with IgG4-related disease, where 3D models aided in surgical strategies.
- Both patients experienced successful outcomes, with the angiosarcoma patient receiving chemotherapy and another surgery, while the IgG4 patient had complete tumor resection, demonstrating the utility of 3D printing in surgical planning.
