Left atrial myxoma with multiple cerebral infarcts and multiple intracranial aneurysms
Atrial myxomas are benign tumors, and most of them are located in the left atrium. Left atrial myxoma commonly leads to cerebral embolic ischemic stroke. The intracranial aneurysm is rarely associated with myxoma. There are few reports about left atrial myxoma leading simultaneously to both anterior and posterior circulation infarction, and multiple intracranial saccular aneurysms. Now we repor...
متن کاملLeft Atrial Myxoma: A Rare Tumor in a Child
Atrial myxomas are uncommon in the pediatric population but are very important due to pursuant atrioventricular valve obstruction and systemic embolic events. Concerning multiple symptoms ranging from congestive heart failure to neurological deficits, the diagnosis of this disease is complicated.

متن کاملStroke from A Large Left Atrial Myxoma
A 36-year-old male involved in a car accident was found to have an embolic stroke due to a left atrial myxoma. Open heart surgery was delayed 4 weeks to decrease the risk of neurologic complications from the anticoagulation required for cardiopulmonary bypass. After resection of the myxoma, intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography found severe mitral regurgitation, which was repaired.

متن کاملLarge left atrial myxoma causing mitral annular dilation, functional mitral stenosis with concealed atrial septal defects
provided the original work is properly cited. CC Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is a relatively precise method of evaluating intracardiac myxoma. However, if the cardiac myxoma is combined with other pathology, it could be missed by TTE. We report a case of a left atrial (LA) myxoma with mechanical mitral annular dilation and functional mitral stenosis (MS) combined with unrevealed atrial...
