RESUMO
The most frequent primary tumour of the heart is myxoma, followed by lipoma, rhabdomyoma, haemangioma and lymphangioma. Primary tumors of the heart constitute 0.4% of autopsy specimens. We report a case of 40 years male who died suddenly and his heart was received in Pathology Department for examination. In the left ventricular wall, a well circumscribed yellowish mass was seen which on microscopy proved to be a lipoma.
