Cardiac myxomas are the most common benign tumors of the heart. Ventricular myxomas are rarely described. We evaluated a young female who presented with syncope and dyspnea. 2D echo and CT pulmonary angiography were done which revealed a mass in RVOT. Surgical excision of the tumor was done via right atriotomy without any complications. Histopathology showed features of a myxoma.
