Right Atrial Myxoma with Coexistent Coronary Artery Disease - A Rare Combination.

ABSTRACT: Atrial myxomas are the most common primary heart tumors. Two-dimensional echocardiography is the diagnostic procedure of choice. The majority of myxomas are located in the left atrium. Myxoma in the right atrium is an uncommon location. The co-occurrence of right atrial myxoma with atherosclerotic coronary artery disease (CAD) is uncommon. In our case, right atrial myxoma was associated with CAD, which makes it a unique case because very few cases of right atrial myxoma coexistent with CAD are described in literature.

A giant left atrial myxoma neovascularized from the right coronary artery.

Project description: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 case of a 51-year-old man presenting with presyncope and palpitations due to a giant left atrial myxoma having its vascular supply from the right coronary artery (RCA).

Left Atrial Myxoma Hypervascularized from the Right Coronary Artery: An Interesting Cath Lab Finding.

Project description: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.

Right Atrial Paraganglioma: An Extremely Rare Primary Cardiac Neoplasm Mimicking Myxoma.

Project description:In this report, we present a case of 35-year-old lady who had presented with atypical chest pain and exertional breathlessness for past six months. Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiograms showed a well-circumscribed, echo-dense mass in the right atrium, attached to the interatrial septum at the level of atrioventricular junction and in the vicinity of coronary sinus ostium. She underwent successful resection of the cardiac mass. Histopathology revealed paraganglioma, which was reconfirmed by immunohistochemistry study. This represents an extremely rare presentation as primary cardiac tumors are 20-times less common than metastatic tumors and paraganglioma is one of the rarest primary cardiac tumors, accounting for < 1% of all cases.

Double trouble: hypertrophic cardiomyopathy coexistent with malignant anomalous right coronary artery.

Project description:A 40-year-old man with no cardiac history was admitted for evaluation of atypical chest pain of 1-month duration. On investigation he was found to have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and an anomalous right coronary artery arising from the left sinus of Valsalva. This is of great clinical significance as both these conditions are independently associated with sudden cardiac death. Following extensive risk assessment and detailed discussion with the patient, he was discharged on medical therapy, comprising bisoprolol, aspirin and rosuvastatin. He has remained free of symptoms for 1 year. This report describes the rare coexistence of these two distinct clinical entities, examines the various treatment options and provides support for medical management as an acceptable treatment strategy in appropriately selected cases.

Right Atrial Myxoma and Chronic Transudative Ascites: A Rare and Challenging Clinical Presentation.

Project description:Highlights•RA myxomas are quite rare and difficult to diagnose.•RA myxomas can obstruct the tricuspid valve.•RA myxomas should be considered a possible cause of chronic transudative ascites.•Echocardiography is the standard diagnostic evaluation of choice.

Right atrial myxoma mimicking tricuspid stenosis.

Project description:A 62-year-old man presented to the cardiology clinic with symptoms of fatigue, shortness of breath and swelling in the abdomen and legs. A pedunculated mobile mass with a short stalk in the right atrium was found to originate from the inferior vena caval opening and prolapse into the right ventricle through a tricuspid valve during diastole in echocardiography. The patient was referred to our department and surgery was planned for right atrial myxomas diagnosis. The mass with surrounding tissue was surgically removed using the cardiopulmonary bypass method. No postoperative complications were seen in the currently asymptomatic patient who is still under our follow-up schedule.

Left Atrial Myxoma Following Coronary Artery Bypass Grafting with Patient Coronary Arterial Grafts: a Rarity.

Project description: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 mass confirmed the diagnosis of atrial myxoma.

Right atrial myxoma: Unusual location; uncommon association.

Project description:We are presenting a case of the right atrial myxoma found in a case of rheumatic heart disease. During transthoracic echocardiography for the evaluation of a suspected rheumatic valvular heart disease, a diagnosis of severe mitral stenosis with severe mitral regurgitation with the right atrial thrombus was made. On transesophageal echocardiography, a pedunculated mass in the right atrium was confirmed. In the course of surgery, it was found that there is a tumor originating from the right atrial appendage (RAA) which was confused with clot on echocardiography. Rheumatic heart disease and myxomas have different etiopathogenesis, and this coexistence has not been reported. Further, right atrial myxoma arising out of RAA is also being reported for the first time.
