An 11-year-old male was admitted with cough and fever for the last 4 days and also complained of pain in the right lung for some weeks. The boy did not show any other symptoms and his past medical history was unremarkable as well. The radiologist findings showed an aspect that suggested for echinococcosis.

At first, it was realised the heart intervention. About a 2-month period later, the child underwent another cyst removal in lung. He had begun taking albendazole 5 days before the heart intervention. The therapy was continued until the lung intervention and for 12 weeks post-operatively. The patient had an uneventful recovery and after about 4 years.

Amongst all primary cardiac tumors, myxomas are the commonest, and their commonest site of origin is the left atrium. Myxomas originating in the left ventricle are rare. When seen, they usually present with a history of systemic embolisation and/or syncopal episodes, with constitutional symptoms being absent. We report here a child with left ventricular myxoma who presented with a prolonged febrile illness.

Intrapericardial teratoma is a rare but recognised cause of respiratory distress in neonates. Patients often present with the compressive effects of the mass within the thorax. Prompt diagnosis should be followed swiftly by surgical resection. We report an unusual case of intrapericardial teratoma in a neonate presenting with collapse of the lung which was successfully treated by surgery.
