Abstract

Introduction. Paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors that arise from extra‐adrenal parasympathetic or sympathetic ganglia neural crest cells. Cardiac paragangliomas are exceedingly rare tumors.

Case description. A case report of surgical treatment of an active left atrial paraganglioma is described. A combined approach was used. Left-sided VATS with tumour mobilization combined with right-sided thoracotomy with cardiopulmonary bypass was performed.

Conclusion. Left-sided VATS with tumor mobilization combined with right-sided thoracotomy for removal of the left atrial tumor with its plastic surgery allows, in our opinion, safe isolation of the tumor. Connecting a heart-lung machine from a right-sided thoracotomy is technically straightforward.
