Primary cardiac tumors are very rare in infants. Here we present an 11-month-old infant with a pericardial inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor who presented with symptoms of respiratory distress and cardiac tamponade. The tumor was surgically removed, and the patient received medical treatment; the patient had no problem with follow-up.
