Abstract:
Glomus tumors are rare benign soft tissue lesions, most commonly found on the skin. They are an extremely rare cause of the cardiac tumor. We report a case of right atrial glomus tumor excised using a novel technique utilizing cardiac electroanatomical mapping techniques ordinarily used for arrhythmia surgery.
