Gossypiboma is a rare complication of surgical interventions that can have severe medical and legal consequences. We report the clinical case of a boy who was 4 years old and was operated on at 1.5 months old for atrial septal defect and partial abnormal drainage of the right pulmonary veins into the right atrium. After 3 years, a mass was found in the projection of the basal segments of the right lung. An X-ray showed signs of calcification. Thoracoscopy was performed followed by conversion to open surgery and removal of the gossypiboma with a fibrous capsule of 3×3.5×3 cm. An examination 6 months after surgery showed no complaints, and growth and development were normal according to age. The diagnosis of gossypiboma should be included when determining a diagnosis in all cases where there is a history of surgery and nonspecific clinical and diagnostic manifestations.
