Right atrial paraganglioma: an unusual primary cardiac tumour

Rory Kennelly et al. Eur J Cardiothorac Surg. 2008 Jun.

Abstract

We present a case of an unusual presentation of a rare primary cardiac tumour. There are no more than 50 previously reported cases of primary cardiac paraganglioma in the world literature and only a small proportion of these involve the right side of the heart. Diagnosis is difficult and surgical management is varied and complex.
