A Giant Left Atrial Myxoma Neovascularized from the Right Coronary Artery
Myxomas are benign and the most common tumors of the cardiac muscle (Reynen, 1995). They are predominantly located in the left atrium. Clinical manifestations may vary according to the localization and the size of the myxoma. On the other hand, imaging of a myxoma by contrast dye during coronary angiography is a rare sign, which displays the vascular supply of the tumor. Here, we report the cas...
متن کاملMulticavitated left atrial myxoma mimicking a hydatid cyst.
A 67 year-old asymptomatic patient was referred to our echo-lab because of hypertension. Transthoracic 2D-echocardiogram showed a non-prolapsing ovoid mass attached to the left side of the interatrial septum. Transesophageal echocardiography evidenced an ovoid cavitated mass with internal areas of calcification. Color Doppler revealed flow inside the cavities. At surgery, a multicavitated mass ...
متن کاملLeft Atrial Myxoma Hypervascularized from the Right Coronary Artery: An Interesting Cath Lab Finding
Primary cardiac tumors are rare and approximately half of them are atrial myxomas. They rarely remain asymptomatic, especially if large. The imaging of a myxoma by contrast dye during coronary angiography is an infrequent sign, which clarifies the vascular supply of the tumor. We report herein an interesting and rare case of a left atrial myxoma hypervascularized from the right coronary artery.
متن کاملCardiac Myxoma Removal and Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting in a Middle-Aged Woman: A Case Report
Cardiac myxoma is usually a benign tumor in the left atrium that accounts for more than 50% of primary cardiac tumors. A 55-year-old female referred to our hospital with chest pain, referred pain to the left hand, and severe dyspnea. Transthoracic Doppler Echocardiography was performed and the results showed a large and mobile left atrial mass without any attachment to the interatrial septum. I...
متن کاملLeft Atrial Myxoma Following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting with Patient Coronary Arterial Grafts: a Rarity
The development of left atrial myxoma after coronary artery bypass graft surgery is a rare entity. A 60-year-old man with previous off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting four years ago with patent coronary grafts was diagnosed with left atrial mass. The patient underwent successful resection of the same through minimally invasive right anterolateral thoracotomy. Histopathology of the atrial m...
