Zusammenfassung:Abstract We describe a case of a 46-year-old man with calcified amorphous tumour in the right atrium and significant coronary artery disease. Preoperative investigations revealed a polypoid oscillating mass arising from the interatrial septum and attached to the tricuspid valve annulus. On-pump complete extirpation of the tumour with concomitant coronary artery bypass grafting was performed successfully. The patient’s postoperative course was uneventful.
