title: [Atrial lipoma as a cause of tachycardiac arrhythmia].
abstract: A 41-year-old man had paroxysmal tachycardic arrhythmias. Computed tomography revealed a right atrial lipoma, 7 cm in diameter. After the tumour had been removed (with histological confirmation of the diagnosis) the arrhythmia ceased. Such tumour must be considered in the differential diagnosis of tachycardic arrhythmias of undetermined origin.
