Cardiac rhabdomyoma is a rare type of benign tumor affecting the heart. There are a few previous reports of intracardiac rhabdomyomas causing ventricular arrythmia. We describe a 1-year-old female tuberous sclerosis patient who was presented with a ventricular tachycardia. Diagnostic echocardiography revealed two masses in the left ventricular outflow tract originating from the ventricular septum. The masses were surgically resected through aortotomy using cardiopulmonary bypass and the masses appeared benign. The pathology was that of a cardiac rhabdomyomas. Postoperative course was uneventful and the ventricular tachycardia was controlled.
