description BACKGROUND: Cardiac arrhythmia in an apparently healthy heart needs a detailed anatomical investigation to detect any unsuspected anomalies such as cardiomyopathy and cardiac tumours. RESULTS: We report cardiac tumours as a cause of tachyarrhythmias. CONCLUSION: Cardiac tumours are rare in childhood and should be considered as part of the differential diagnosis in a child presenting with cardiac signs and symptoms and treatment should be individualised for each patient.
