title: Cardiac tumours in children.
abstract: Three children with cardiac tumors are described: a 12-year-old female child who had left atrial myxoma, and two males having rhabdomyoma of the right ventricle associated with tuberous sclerosis. The child with left atrial myxoma was symptomatic and the tumour was subsequently excised. The other two children with rhabdomyoma were managed conservatively.
