Cardiac hemangioma is a benign and rare primary tumor of the heart. Though it has benign histopathological features, its complications can be life-threatening. We report a young adult male without any prior structural heart disease or medical history who presented with ventricular tachyarrhythmia. Echocardiography revealed an echogenic mass located intramurally in the left lateral ventricle and its distinctive characteristics were revealed with further imaging modalities. Though simple complete removal of the mass is the preferred treatment, its firm texture and thinned encircling myocardium prevented the total excision. In this case report, we discussed cardiac hemangioma, its potential complications and treatment options.
