Indication for Heart Transplantation in a Rare Giant Unresectable Cardiac Tumor

Primary cardiac tumors are rare, and most are benign. Cardiac lymphangiomas are extremely rare, being most frequently diagnosed casually in asymptomatic patients or upon complications derived from compression. As in most benign tumors, the treatment is resection. We report the case of a 69-year-old female who debuts with congestive heart failure and is then diagnosed with a giant unresectable lymphangioma. The literature regarding the treatment of this tumor is scarce, to the best of our knowledge, especially if right coronary artery involvement is present. When the tumor is considered unresectable, cardiac transplantation may be considered as treatment.
