| Abstract: | A patient who had a VVI pacemaker implanted 4 years ago presented with exertional dyspnea. He was found to have a large mobile ovoid mass in the right atrium attached to the lateral atrial wall apart from the pacing electrode. The tumor resembling a myxoma was removed successfully under cardiopulmonary bypass and found to be an organized thrombus. |
