“…Invasive cardiac lipoma is usually found by chance on echocardiography because of the absence of obvious symptoms. Our search of Web of Science, Medline, and PubMed databases as of September 12, 2019 yielded 58 reports of patients with invasive cardiac lipoma detected by echocardiography 1‐3,6,13‐66 . We summarize the information provided by echocardiography combined with the results of CT and MRI (Table 1).…”

Echocardiography is first-line examination of cardiac tumors. We report the case of a 25-year-old woman with a right atrial transmural invasive lipoma, and we review 58 published reports of primary cardiac invasive lipomas detected by echocardiography. We summarize the ultrasonographic characteristics and main sites of development, and examine the "invagination hypothesis". Echocardiography appears valuable for early detection, intraoperative monitoring, and postoperative follow-up of invasive cardiac lipomas.
