Hospital Course

Surgery was successfully performed. Operative exploration revealed that the tumor was a hemorrhagic, ovoid, soft mass, covered by glistening endocardium (membrane), arose from the interventricular septum, and extended to the apex of RV (6 cm × 6 cm × 5 cm).

Pathological diagnosis was hemangioma.
