Primary heart tumors are rare with an estimated incidence ranging 0.0017-0.19%. Myxoma is the most prevalent primary heart tumor. The right atrium is an unusual location, occurring only in the 15-20% of myxoma cases. We describe the case of a massive right atrial myxoma causing right ventricular inflow and tricuspid valve obstruction. The tumor was detected by echocardiography and confirmed by abdomen-thoracic tomography. It was resected along with a section of tricuspid septal leaflet, followed by primary repair. In 2-year follow-up the patient is asymptomatic.
原发性心脏肿瘤较为罕见，估计发病率为 0.0017-0.19%。黏液瘤是最常见的原发性心脏肿瘤。右心房是一个不常见的部位，仅占黏液瘤病例的 15-20%。我们描述了一例巨大的右心房黏液瘤导致右心室流入道和三尖瓣阻塞的病例。该肿瘤通过超声心动图检测，并通过腹部-胸部计算机断层扫描证实。肿瘤与部分三尖瓣隔瓣一起被切除，随后进行了一期修复。在 2 年的随访中，患者无症状。
