title: Vascular tumor in the heart.
abstract: A rare case of a vascular tumor originating from the uterus growing up in the inferior vena cava into the right heart with clinical signs of tricuspid insufficiency is reported. Although this vascular tumor primarily showed no signs of malignancy, consequent re-evaluation seems to be necessary in order to detect possible tumor recurrence in time.
