Minimally Invasive Inframammary Approach to Left Atrial Myxoma Resection

Abstract

Minimally invasive techniques for myxoma resection are rapidly becoming standard of care for such lesions. Inframammary incisions are commonly used in breast reconstruction. The use of this previous incision for myxoma resection is safe and serves as a cosmetically superior site for female patients. We describe a patient who underwent successful atrial myxoma resection through a previous breast augmentation inframammary incision.
