Abstract

We report an unusual case of a 44-year-old lady with a facial port-wine stain and a life-long history of atrial tachycardia who was found to have a large haemangioma lying posterior to the heart supplied by both the right and left coronary arteries. The facial port-wine stain was felt to be a cutaneous marker of the cardiac neoplasm.

Key Words: Haemangioma • port-wine stain • atrial tachycardia
