Abstrakt: Myxomas are the most common type of benign cardiac tumors, and the right atrium is the second most common location among them, with an incidence ranging from 8.6% to 20% of all cardiac myxomas. Herein, we described a rare case of right atrial myxoma originating from the inferior vena cava orifice. In this case, main pulmonary artery cannulation and moderate hypothermic circulatory arrest were helpful to obtain a clear and simple view of the operative field without blood, which led to complete resection of the tumor with safety and better outcomes with no future recurrence.
