✦ Synopsis

Primary cardiac tumors are rare clinical entities with the histologic dlagnosis usually made from surgically obtained tissue or at postmortem examination. Transvenous endomyocardial biopsy has been used less frequently, under fluoroscopic or transthoracic echocardiographic guidance. In this case report, we utilized the transesophageal echocardiography to guide the endomyocardial biopsy from a right atrial tumor in a 35-year-old man. 01 1996 Wlley-Liss, Inc.
