Abstract

Right atrial aneurysm is a rare congenital heart condition defined as a dilation of the right atrium in the absence of an underlying cause [1]. The clinical presentation varies; most patients are asymptomatic, while others may experience arrhythmias or intracavitary thrombi [1, 2]. We report a case.
