Abstract

Cardiac lipoma is a rare benign primary cardiac tumor and is usually asymptomatic (1). It is usually discovered incidentally but can be related to hemodynamic obstruction depending on its location (2). There have been several reports regarding cardiac lipoma, including its clinical presentation and characteristic findings on computed tomography (CT) (2, 3). However, few cases documented the characteristic CT findings of solitary or multiple cardiac lipomas in the patient with tuberous sclerosis; and to our knowledge, no cases of biventricular lipoma or lipomatous hypertrophy with multifocal fat in a non-tuberous sclerosis patient have ever been reported (4). Therefore, we here report a case of right ventricular (RV) lipomatous mass and multifocal fat infiltration in both ventricles, which were incidentally detected in a young woman showing an abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG) finding.
