case_images: Due to persistent nature of this cough, a computerized tomography (CT) scan of the chest was performed that revealed a large (4.5 cm) right ventricular (RV) mass and pericardial effusion (Figure 1()).
case_images: 2D echocardiogram of the heart in apical four chamber view showing a right ventricular mass (arrow) arising from the free wall.

case_images: Preoperative 2D echocardiogram confirmed a large 5.5 x 7.5 cm mass that was intimately associated with right ventricular free wall encroaching upon the AV groove and interfering with the tricuspid valve (TV) mechanism (Figure 2()).
case_images: Hematoxylin-eosin, original magnification x400. The figure shows large polygonal tumor cells in nests with eosinophilic cytoplasm and central vesicular nuclei with prominent nucleoli.
