Résumé

Lipomatous hypertrophy of the interatrial septum (LHIS) is a rare but benign cardiac tumor that can be found on cardiac imaging such as echocardiogram, or during surgery or an autopsy. Cardiac MRI is the best imaging modality to determine the borders of the tumor and its extension into the intraventricular septum and ventricular free wall. Patients require close monitoring because LHIS may cause right or left outflow tract obstruction or superior vena cava obstruction, requiring cardiac surgical intervention. This article describes a patient with LHIS who underwent cardiac surgery because of her increasing symptomatology.
