Abstract
Left ventricular tumour is a rare condition in children. The causes include vegetations, thrombus, and fibroma. 2-year-old asymptomatic female presented with an innocent heart murmur at 6 months of age. Subsequent follow-ups at 18 months of age showed left ventricular mass. Surgical pathology revealed "nodular fasciitis."This type of tumour has never been described in the heart before.
