A Case of Left Ventricular Masson's Tumor: Not Every Heart Tumor Is a Myxoma.

Masson's tumor is a benign tumor that usually arises secondary to vascular trauma or thrombi, leading to vascular proliferation. Masson's tumors are most commonly reported in the head, neck, and extremities. Cases in the heart are exceedingly rare, with most case reports describing the left atrium as the most common location. Even though the tumor is benign, excision is recommended due to the risk of embolization. This is a case of Masson's tumor located in the left ventricle. The patient is a 24-year-old female, who presented complaining of palpitations and lightheadedness. Transthoracic echocardiography showed a mobile echodensity in the left ventricle. Cardiac MRI showed characteristics similar to a myxoma. The patient underwent surgical resection and a biopsy showed Masson's tumor. This case report focuses on the histopathological features and imaging findings of Masson's tumor.
