Homocystinuria presenting as a calcified right atrial mass.

Homocystinuria is a genetic inborn error of metabolism due to the deficiency of cystathionine β-synthase resulting in increased serum homocysteine and methionine and decreased cysteine which predisposes affected individuals to arterial and venous thromboembolic phenomena.

Our case reveals an unusual mix of findings using imaging with multiple detector computed tomography and radiographs.
