Chest computed tomography (CT). (a) A 77-year-old man presented with an intrapericardial mass. Contrast-enhanced CT demonstrated a huge mass adhered to the left atrial appendage. The mass was not uniform; it lacked calcification and showed non-homogeneous enhancement (arrowheads). (b) Coronal contrast-enhanced CT shows that the mass was covered with pericardium (arrows).
