Abstract
- Primary cardiac tumors are very rare and are often confused with other conditions due to clinical presentations or initial imaging. Here, we present a rare case of a 56-year-old male with right ventricular mass incidentally found on imaging. Appropriate testing should be conducted to rule out the possibility of a benign tumor. Asymptomatic patients with co-morbidities can be managed without surgery. More research is needed to devise guidelines for the management of these cases.<br /> (© 2022 The Authors.
