  • Title: Surgical treatment of a cavernous hemangioma of the left atrial roof.
    Author: Matsumoto Y, Watanabe G, Endo M, Sasaki H.
    Journal: Eur J Cardiothorac Surg; 2001 Sep; 20(3):633-5. PubMed ID: 11509295.
    Abstract:
    A hemangioma that occurs as a primary tumor of the heart is extremely rare. The authors experienced a cavernous hemangioma located in the epicardium of the left atrial roof in a patient who had paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Resection of the tumor and cryo-coagulation yielded a satisfactory clinical course. No recurrence of the tumor is noted at the time of 5 years after operation.
