Minimally Invasive Thoracoscopic Resection of a Giant Right‐Atrial Lipoma on the Beating Heart: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Primary cardiac lipomas are rare benign tumors that are usually indolent but may cause compression or arrhythmia when large. We sought to describe the safety and feasibility of a totally thoracoscopic, off‐pump approach for their resection. A 33‐year‐old asymptomatic woman was found to have a 5.1 × 3.6 cm fat‐density mass at the roof of the ...
