“…It was noticed that the patients presenting with rhythm disturbances, survived for a longer time than those with normal rhythms. [ 5 ] Kim et al [ 11 ] reported a case where the initial diagnosis only showed one degree of atrioventricular block 7 years before and no intracardiac mass was found on echocardiography, with occurrence of various cardiac arrhythmias during follow-up. Seven years later, a giant right lymphoma was detected.…”

Rationale: Primary cardiac lymphoma is a rare tumor, especially a tumor located in coronary sinus (CS). The most common symptom of cardiac tumors is dyspnea, accounting for 64%, followed by chest pain, accounting for 26%. However, the cases with paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia (SVT) as a major clinical presentation are extremely rare. Patient concerns: We report a 55-year-old female patient with primary CS lymphoma and paroxysmal SVT. Diagnoses: After the surgical resection, pathology revealed the evidence of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma. Interventions: The patient underwent chemotherapy after CS tumor resection. Outcomes: The patient was disease-free during the 6-month follow-up. Lessons: CS enlargement may be the cause of SVT. Echocardiography should focus on the CS section to arrive at the right diagnosis.
