Abstract

Rhabdomyoma is the most common cause of primary cardiac tumors in childhood. it is usually bening. It affects the cardiac communication system and may cause arrhythmia. In fetal and postnatal life, haemodynamic effects are rarely seen due to large masses. We present 23 gestational weekly fetus and 2 month age infants who have rabdomyom and supraventricular tachycardia.

Keywords: Arrhythmia, fetus, infant, rhabdomyoma.
