Right atrial hemangioma.
A case of right atrial hemangioma as a rare tumor of the heart is reported. Because of its single, pedunculated mass, surgical excision of the tumor resulted in the complete treatment. Histologically, it was classified as arteriolar type. The importance of recent non-invasive techniques to diagnose these tumors during life is emphasized.
