Key Points

A biatrial myxoma led to an acute stroke in a 59-year-old female, highlighting the dangers of tumor embolization.
Surgical excision of the intracardiac tumors was successfully performed, with the patient later discharged in stable condition.
Myxomas are the most common type of intracardiac tumors, usually originating in the left atrium.
The occurrence of simulataneous myxomas in both atria is extremely rare but carries life-threatening risks.

Abstract

Myxomas are the most common intracardiac tumors, typically benign in nature, with the majority originating in the left atrium. Simultaneous occurrence of myxomas in both atria (biatrial myxoma) is an extremely rare condition that carries life-threatening risks due to embolization. Here, we report a case of a 59-year-old female who was diagnosed with biatrial myxoma. The patient underwent successful surgical excision of the intracardiac tumors and was discharged in stable condition.
