摘要
Myxomas are the most common cardiac tumors, benign, and usually located in the left atrium. Typically echocardiography reveals a solid tumor, whereas cystic myxomas are rare with only a few cases documented in the literature. We describe the case of a 63-year-old, female patient with an unusual presentation of a left atrial myxoma as a cystic tumor.
