C L Santos1, F Moraes, C R Moraes.   

Abstract

Reported here is an obstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract caused by a tuberculoma in a 15-year-old boy who presented with a ventricular septal defect. The obstruction was discovered at surgery and the tuberculous aetiology was only demonstrated histologically. To the authors' knowledge, this is the first report of a tuberculoma of the heart associated with congenital heart disease.
