Abstract
We report an unusual case of a 30-year-old man with a primary mature cystic teratoma in the right ventricle. This case constitutes the third case of primary intramyocardial teratoma in an adult and the first that describes its benign form. In this report, we discuss surgical implications of such a rare cardiac tumor.
