Abstract

Cardiac blood cysts are rare benign tumors. It is commonly found in the heart valve and left ventricle of newborns by autopsy and is rarely seen in adults [1, 2]. The typical histopathology of cardiac blood cysts is a closed, round, blood-containing cystic mass attached to the heart valve or endocardium. This article reports a rare case of sudden death due to a giant subaortic cardiac blood cyst with coronary heart disease in an adult patient and summarizes the pathological features, aiming to provide a reference for the forensic pathological identification of cardiac blood cysts.
