  • Title: Right ventricular outflow obstruction caused by primary cardiac neoplasia. Clinical features in two dogs.
    Author: Bright JM, Toal RL, Blackford LA.
    Journal: J Vet Intern Med; 1990; 4(1):12-6. PubMed ID: 2308119.
    Abstract:
    Obstruction to pulmonary blood flow as a result of neoplasia in the right ventricular outflow tract is described in two dogs. Whereas one dog had exertional syncope and a systolic ejection murmur, the other had signs of congestive failure and hypoxia. In both animals the mass was detected in the right ventricle with two-dimensional echocardiography and confirmed angiographically. Although rare, primary right ventricular neoplasia represents a potentially treatable form of cardiac disease and should be considered as a cause of acquired outflow tract obstruction.
