Overview

Case report reveals right ventricular myxoma in a young woman with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, highlighting potential associations.

Key Points

  • To report a case of right ventricular myxoma in a young woman and explore the association with childhood malignancy.
  • Reported case of a 34-year-old woman with a history of acute lymphoblastic leukemia
  • Utilized echocardiography, computed tomography, and pulmonary angiography for diagnosis
  • Conducted histopathological examination for definitive diagnosis
  • Right ventricular myxoma identified in the right ventricular outflow tract
  • Urgent surgical excision of the tumor performed due to risk of pulmonary embolism
  • Three-month follow-up showed no recurrence or signs of complications
