We present the case of a 42-year-old man with dyspnea New York Heart Association class III-IV, leg edema and ascites for the last 3 months. ECG and chest X-ray were unremarquable. The echo study revealed a large triangular mass in the right atrium attached to the interatratrial septum with a wide base. There were also severe tricuspid stenosis and regurgitation.
