Transthoracic 2D echocardiography is effective in visualizing and diagnosing rare right ventricular myxomas.
Ramachandran Muthiah (2016) conducted a case report in Right Ventricular Myxoma (n=1). Two-dimensional echocardiography was evaluated on Detection and characterization of cardiac mass. Transthoracic two-dimensional echocardiography identified a 23.3 x 7.3 mm isolated right ventricular myxoma originating from the anterior papillary muscle in an asymptomatic 15-year-old girl.
