A patient undergoing successful excision of a right atrial myxoma arising from the inferior vena cava is reported. The rarity of this case prompted a review of the literature in which only 2 other patients with a right atrial myxoma originating from inferior vena cava tissue were found.
Journal of Cardiac Surgery, 2004
A myxoma is reportedly the most common benign cardiac tumor. The common site of origin is the left atrium (LA), specifically interatrial septum (IAS) at the fossa ovalis. 2 Most myxomas are sessile and the weight of resected neoplasms ranges from 5 to 125 g (mean: 40 g). Malignant transformation has been controversial, however, the current consensus is that this is a benign neoplasm with no malignant potential. It is likely that reports of malignant myxomas are cases of sarcomas with myxoid features that have been misdiagnosed as a myxoma. 4

Introduction: Primary intracardiac tumors are rare and approximately 50% are myxomas. The majority of myxomas are located in the left atrium and have variable clinical presentation. We report a case of a large myxoma in the right atrium, which is an uncommon location for this type of tumor. Case presentation: A 45-year-old Caucasian woman with a history of palpitation had dyspnea on great exertion and discrete weight loss. A cardiac evaluation showed splitting of S1. An echocardiogram showed a large mass in the right atrium, suggesting myxoma; chest computed tomography confirmed the diagnostic hypothesis. Our patient underwent surgical treatment with excision of a 10 cm multilobulated mass. She presented with supraventricular tachycardia during the operation. She was placed in the intensive care unit and her condition improved after the use of amiodarone. The diagnosis of myxoma was confirmed by histopathological study. Conclusions: In this case report, we emphasize the rarity of large myxomas in the right atrium and the difficulty of differential diagnosis given their dimension and location.

Atrial myxoma is the most frequent intracardiac tumor, account ing for nearly 50% of benign cardiac tumours in adults. We present here a rare case report of a solitary left atrial myxoma attached to the left atrial wall near the origin of the right pulmo nary vein. The stalk of tumor was not attached to the interatrial septum, which is the most common site of attachment. Instead, it was attached on the wall of left atrium adjacent to the inter atrial septum. Surgical exploration confirmed its attachment in the left atrium near the origin of right upper pulmonary vein.
