Abstrakt: |
Cardiac myxomas originating from the left ventricular free wall are extremely rare. A 32-year-old Swiss male was found to have a 5 x 3 x 3 cm myxoma originating from the left ventricular free wall using transthoracic echocardiography. The tumour was successfully treated by surgical excision but the mitral valve could not be preserved because of an untypical interference of the myxoma with the subvalvular apparatus. |
