    Abstract:
    We reported a case of malignant lymphoma originating from the right atrium. The patient was a 71-year-old man who had no symptoms associated with heart failure and arrhythmias. At the time of admission the patient was suggested the presence of a tumor in the right atrium by an echocardiogram accidentally. Coronary angiography revealed a feeding artery to a tumor. Although cytological confirmation was not obtained, diagnostic extirpation of tumor was performed under cardiopulmonary bypass. The histological diagnosis was malignant lymphoma of B-cell origin. His postoperative course was uneventful and no recurrence had been observed one year postoperatively without chemotherapy.
