Abstract

A 66‐year‐old asymptomatic woman was admitted to our hospital with the diagnosis of a right atrial mass detected on an outside transthoracic echocardiogram and confirmed on transesophageal echocardiography. Physical examination and basal electrocardiogram were normal. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a 3.8 Γ— 2.5 cm echogenic mass in the right atrium. A multislice CT examination demonstrated a right atrial mass with a fat density ranging from βˆ’80 to βˆ’110 HU. The patient had a successful surgical excision of the mass, and the diagnosis of lipoma was confirmed on histopathological examination. Β© 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Clin Ultrasound, 2009

Congenital aneurysm of the right atrium was diagnosed in a 17-week fetus. It appeared as an outward bulge of the right atrium which doubled its size. The aneurysm was akinetic. Flow across the atrioventricular valves appeared unobstructed. The fetus had no evidence of cardiac failure. The patient el
