| Popis: | Based on statistics from the UK, the incidence of myxoma is about 1:1,000,000/year. Three recent cases of recurrent myxoma are reported, one where excision was probably incomplete, one where tumour implantation may have occurred and one where a mesenchymal sarcoma was misinterpreted histologically. The relative importance of these three factors in recurrence of cardiac tumours after surgical excision is discussed. |
