Ventricular tumors are a rare clinical entity with limited posibilities for excision diagnosis. For benign conditions surgical excision is the treatment of choice. A case presenting as a clinical conundrum with left ventricular tumor and complex past medical history is discussed. Aortic transvalvular video-assisted cardioscopy was used for removal and definitive diagnosis.

Key Words: Left ventricular tumor; Videocardioscopy; Video-assisted cardiac surgery
