    Abstract:
    Cardiac tumors are rare in children, having a maximum reported incidence of 0.027% in prenatal diagnosis, increasing the incidence in necropsy diagnosis; rhabdomyomas are the most frequent cardiac tumors, some cases are associated with tuberous sclerosis. We present the report of two cases in our unit that were diagnosed prenatal with follow-up after birth and one of them was associated with tuberous sclerosis. Both cases were admitted in a third level center, uncomplicated, without requiring surgical treatment, and could be discharged. Los tumores cardiacos son raros en la población infantil, teniendo una incidencia máxima reportada del 0.027% en el diagnóstico prenatal, incrementándose la incidencia en el diagnóstico por necropsia. Los rabdomiomas son los tumores cardiacos más frecuentes, algunos casos pueden asociarse con esclerosis tuberosa. Presentamos el reporte de dos casos en nuestra unidad a los cuales se les realizó diagnóstico prenatal con seguimiento posterior al nacimiento y asociándose uno de ellos a esclerosis tuberosa. Ambos casos recibieron atención en un centro de tercer nivel, sin complicaciones, sin requerir tratamiento quirúrgico, pudiendo ser egresados.
