Mahmoud Momtahen et al. J Card Surg. 2011 Jul.

Abstract

We report a patient with a large mass in the right atrium with tricuspid valve involvement resulting in significant stenosis, which was a tuberculoma without active pulmonary disease. Cardiac tuberculoma is rare and usually involves the pericardium. Myocardial involvement is a very rare occurrence.
