Cardiac lymphangiomas represent one of the rarest types of cardiac tumors. We describe the case of a 28-year-old male with cystic lymphangioma and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. There have been only a few cases reported and to the best of our knowledge this is the first documented case associating a cardiac lymphangioma with cardiomyopathy.
