 Abstract
References
 
A patient with an unusual left ventricular outflow tract obstruction caused by a solitary pedunculated left ventricular rhabdomyoma is described. Diagnosis was based on two-dimensional echocardiographic findings alone. The obstructive portion of the tumor was successfully removed from the interventricular septum by an aortic root approach.
