Abstract
Right ventricular myxoma is a very rare location of cardiac myxomas. The most common complications are pulmonary embolism and tumor obstruction of the pulmonary valve. We report the case of a 63-year-old woman admitted to Cardiology for recurrent syncope and progressively worsening dyspnea. Echocardiography revealed right atrial myxoma. Surgical excision was performed under extracorporeal circulation, with favorable postoperative outcomes. Histological examination of the specimen confirmed the diagnosis of myxoma. The 2-month follow-up does not show any tumor recurrence.
