Abstract:
A rare right atrial aneurysm is described in a 36-year-old man. After median sternotomy for coronary bypass, a thin-walled aneurysmal dilatation of the right atrium was seen by chance. The patient was in sinus rhythm. The aneurysm was surgically resected. The postoperative course was uneventful.
