Ping-Pong Mitral Stenosis: Left Atrial Myxoma With Mitral Stenosis and Pulmonary Hypertension in an Octogenarian
Left atrial (LA) myxoma presenting with symptoms of mitral stenosis in elderly males is very rare accounting for 10% of the cases. We report an 80-year-old male who presented with symptoms of orthopnea and palpitations and was subsequently found to have a large LA myxoma obstructing the mitral valve and causing pulmonary hypertension (PHT).
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...
متن کاملLeft Atrial Myxoma Mimicking Mitral Stenosis
Cardiac myxoma is a benign (non-malignant) neoplasm that represents the most common primary tumour of the heart. We present the case of a 36 year old woman with background hypertension who presented with features of left ventricular failure and seizures, and was found during transthoracic echocardiography to have left atrial myxoma protruding through the mitral valve orifice. She subsequently h...
متن کاملAtrial Myxoma Mimicking Mitral Stenosis
Myxoma is the most common primary cardiac tumor and is usually located in the left atrium. Clinical manifestation relies in large part on the size, location, and architecture of the tumor. There are many reports in the literature of cardiac myxomas causing syncope, embolism, even myocardial infarction. We present a rare case of a patient who underwent urgent surgical resection of a large left a...
متن کاملGiant obstructive left atrial myxoma resembling mitral valve stenosis
Primary tumors of the heart are rare, with an incidence between 0.0017% and 0.19% in unselected patients at autopsy. Approximately 75% of the tumors are benign, and nearly half of them are myxomas (1). Atrial myxoma is the most common benign cardiac neoplasm, and its origin has been ascribed to a multipotential mesenchymal cell (2). Myxomas commonly occur between the third and sixth decades of ...
