Giant primary leiomyoma of the right ventricle.
Echocardiography detected a giant mass on the lateral wall of the right ventricle in a 13-year-old boy. The mass extended into the cavity of right ventricle without attachment to adjacent structures. We resected the mass under cardiopulmonary bypass. Histology showed it to be a primary leiomyoma of the right ventricle.
