Introduction: Primary cardiac tumors are rare in childhood and they are mostly benign (97%). Rhabdomyomas incidence is 45% in autopsy series and 79% in clinical series. In the pediatric population, the incidence is 0.27%. Case: We report the case of a neonate with cardiac rhabdomyomas diagnosed before he was born that caused neither fetal heart rhythm disturbances nor other cardiac pathologic condition. The brain MRI showed signs of tuberous sclerosis. Discusion: Though, benign, these tumors may cause clinical manifestations depending on their location and the structures involved, they can obstruct or invade. The association with tuberous sclerosis can be as frequent as 81%.
