Right-atrial myxoma clinically mimicking recurrence of rheumatic valve disease long time after mitral valve repair.
Indian Heart Journal 2016 September
Right atrial myxomas are rare. Its occurrence in a previously operated patient of rheumatic mitral stenosis posed clinical diagnostic challenge. We herein report a case of right atrial myxoma who had undergone mitral valve repair 20 years ago and now presented in congestive heart failure. The tumor was arising from the ostium of the coronary sinus and prolapsed into the right ventricle causing significant right ventricular inflow and outflow obstruction. Urgent repeat cardiac surgery was successfully performed to remove the tumor along with mitral valve replacement. We review the diagnostic and therapeutic problems resulting from this unusual association.
