Abstract
Around 2% of resected cardiac masses are ascribed to primary cardiac hemangiomas. With a variety of symptoms and variable natural history, these masses can be challenging to diagnose. This paper describes a case of a left ventricular mass in a young patient which was ultimately excised and diagnosed as a cavernous hemangioma.
