چکیده
conclusions a right atrium myxoma in a patient with a history of multiple soft tissue tumors has been limited to only a few cases. this may suggest a genomic affinity or similarity; if so, those with multiple different type soft tissue masses should be screened for a heart mass before the mass becomes complicated. introduction heart secondary tumors are much more common than primary tumors. these two types of tumors differ not only by their source but also by their symptoms and location in heart chambers. case presentation this report presents a 66-year-old heavy smoker female with a history of pulmonary lobectomy due to lung adenocarcinoma, hysterectomy due to myoma, and lumpectomy due to benign breast mass, who had symptoms of right heart failure for months. physical examinations followed by imaging showed a mass in her right atrium, which was most likely, a myxoma. after a successful surgical excision, histopathological findings confirmed the diagnosis. more studies are needed to evaluate a possible combination between these soft tissue masses.
