Abstract

We report a case of a patient with past history of multiple mieloma with a great amount of extramedullar disease. The patient had an interatrial mass as an incidental finding. After completion of study with cardiovascular magnetic resonance there was evidence of malignant characteristics. Thus the interatrial mass was probably a cardiac extramedullary plasmacytoma.
