Abstract

Blood cysts are exceedingly rare benign cardiac tumors, generally involving the cardiac valves. They are found mainly in the first month of life and in children and are very uncommon in adults. We present a rare case of double right atrium blood cysts, incidentally detected by transthoracic echocardiography in an 85-year old patient.
