  • 발행 : 1994.04.01

초록

Primary cardiac lipoma is an extremely rare condition. We reports a case of primary lipoma located mainly in the right atrium of the heart in a 58-year-old male patient. The initial presenting symptoms were dyspnea followed by rapidly progress!ve congestive heart failure. Echocardiogram revealed huge mass on right atrium with stalk arising from septum. Under cardiopulmonary bypass the mass was removed and revealed characteristic findings of lipoma on microscope. The patient was recovered without any problem. We would like to describe this case of rare tumor with the review of literatures.
