Unique Giant Cardiac Tumor in an Infant: Rhabdomyoma or Fibroma?

Abstract

We report a case of giant cardiac tumor diagnosed at fetal life and thought to be a fibroma. Six months later, a marked regression of the tumor size was observed. Diagnosis of rhabdomyoma was retrospectively made. Tuberous sclerosis was then suspected and MRI showed many signs of consistent diagnosis.
