Why the study?
True cardiac lipomas are rare, can present a diagnostic dilemma, and have limited literature regarding their pathology and clinical consequences.
This cadaveric case report provides a clear illustration of a rare true atrial septal lipoma and its potential clinical consequences, such as adverse effects on tricuspid valve function.

Highlights diagnostic challenges distinguishing cardiac lipoma from LHAS; leaves open need for refined imaging criteria in rare PCTs.
Grimmett et al. (2024) studied this question.
