Treatment Options for Cardiac Tumors in Children

• 1. Targeted Therapy: Often used for rhabdomyomas.
• 2. Chemotherapy Combined with Surgery:' Commonly used for sarcomas.
• 3. Surgical Removal: The primary treatment for most other cardiac tumors.

During surgery, a cardiac surgeon removes the tumor and a small portion of the surrounding heart tissue to minimize the risk of recurrence. The procedure is an open-heart surgery performed with the aid of a heart-lung bypass machine, which temporarily takes over the heart's functions during the operation.

This surgery is complex but has a success rate of 65-75% when performed by experienced cardiac surgeons.
