Does A Pericardial Cyst On The Lower Aorta Need Medical Attention?
Should I be concerned about....no I am concerned about a percardial cyst they found last year on my lower aorta by the heart and the cyst located at the T-4. All I hear is it is MOSTLY benign. My concern is that cancer runs horribly through on my mothers side. All to which they to started with just a little cyst which eventually took their lives later. I dont want to wait and want it removed. The one on the T-4 location has grown. Started as 1.5 9 months ago and now is 1.8 today.

Hello There
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that pericardial cyst are generally present from your childhood and are found accidently. Risk depends on the size. You can consult a cardiologist personally for further treatment.
Hopefully this information will guide you properly.
Kind Regards
