    Author: Reynen K, Rein J, Wittekind C, von der Emde J.
    Journal: Int J Cardiol; 1993 Jun 15; 40(1):67-8. PubMed ID: 8349368.
    Abstract:
    In a 29-year-old woman echocardiography revealed a tumour originating from the anterior wall of the right ventricle. Noninvasive findings aroused suspicion of a lipoma. The tumour was removed under cardiopulmonary bypass, the resulting defect in the right ventricular wall being covered with a Goretex patch. Histological examination classified the tumour as a rhabdomyolipoma.
