ABSTRACT
Tumors involving the heart and surrounding cardiac structures may be benign or malignant and can be classified as primary versus secondary in etiology. Primary cardiac tumors are rare lesions and the vast majority of these are benign neoplasms. More commonly, masses that involve the cardiac structures are secondary in nature. The focus of this manuscript will be those cardiac lesions characterized by a predominance of fatty cells. We present two unusual cases of patients with lipomatous cardiac disorders with extreme imaging and review the current literature on this topic.
