Cardiac tumors and tumor-like lesions are uncommon; most are true neoplasms. We here report a case of a pericoronary tumor-like lesion surrounding the right coronary artery in a 39-year-old man who presented with fever and chest pain. Although clarithromycin was administered for 1 week, his fever persisted. Helicobacter cinaedi (H. cinaedi) was isolated from blood cultures and found to be sensitive to ceftriaxone. A computed tomography scan showed a tumor-like lesion with no (18)F-fl uorodeoxyglucose uptake surrounding the right coronary artery. After administration of ceftriaxone, the tumor-like lesion diminished in size according to meticulous computed tomography examinations. We therefore concluded that it was caused by H. cinaedi infection. The patient has been followed up closely for 1 year and remains asymptomatic.
