Early recognition of tumor is vital because it allows prompt and proper management. We report a rare case of cardiac sarcoma who presented as a hemopericardium after straining. Right atrial mass was diagnosed by transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) that was performed to investigate the cause of hemopericardium.
