Abstract

Primary intracardiac tumors are rare and approximately 50% are myxomas. Majority of myxomas are located in left atrium. Most of myxomas are attached to inter-atrial septum and have variable clinical presentation depending on size, location and mobility of the tumor. We report a case of large myxoma in the right atrium with atypical clinical presentation and location for this type of tumor.
