“…We resected the whole tumor in our case, without any patch for reconstruction of the free wall. If complete excision of the large lipoma is planned, reconstruction of the interatrial septum and cavity closure with autologous pericardium or Dacron must be planned [ 14 ]. Also, complete surgical resection should not be attempted if it will compromise vital structures, taking into consideration its rare malignant transformation and absence of recurrence after excision.…”

BackgroundThe atrial intramyocardial lipomas are rare benign unusual tumors of the heart. The indication and best form of treatment for cardiac lipomas remain controversial.Case presentationThe atrial intramyocardial lipomas are rare benign unusual tumors of the heart. We report a 55-year-old Chinese female with a history of hypertension. Echocardiography and 64-slice computed tomography showed a fatty mass in the right atrium. Although she was asymptomatic, a surgical resection was indicated since the lipoma could cause an embolism and arrhythmias and its potential to enlarge. Surgery revealed an intramyocardial lipoma on the atrial free wall which was confirmed by histopathology. The patient remained asymptomatic after surgery, and no recurrence was seen after 1 year.ConclusionsAlthough cardiac lipomas are usually benign, tumor embolism, potential to enlarge, or intracardiac obstruction can cause a critical situation. Therefore, a surgical resection was indicated even in asymptomatic patients.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s12957-015-0441-9) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

“…Among us, in a series of 50 cases of primary cardiac tumors, clinically and histologically studied by Fernandes et al [5], there was only one case of lipoma. The 4 other cases were described in the national literature [6][7][8][9].…”

We reported the case of an asymptomatic 43-year-oldman with a lipoma of the interventricular septum. Diagnosis was established during routine medical examination by 2-dimensional echocardiography and confirmed by computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging. The patient underwent successful resection of the tumor.Descriptors: Lipoma. Heart neoplasms. Interventricular septum. ResumoRelatamos o caso de um homem de 43 anos, assintomático, portador de um lipoma do septo interventricular, diagnosticado durante exame médico de rotina, por meio de ecocardiograma bidimensional e confirmado por tomografia computadorizada e ressonância magnética. O paciente foi submetido, com sucesso, à ressecção do tumor.Descritores: Lipoma. Neoplasias cardíacas. Septo interventricular.
