Keywords: Cardiac mass, rhabdomyoma, right ventricle
Primary tumors of the heart are extremely rare. Rhabdomyomas usually do not require any treatment, unless they cause outflow/inflow obstruction or conduction disturbances. Herein, we present an eight-year-old boy with a cardiac rhabdomyoma causing right ventricle outflow tract obstruction, which was successfully resected.
