Overview

Retrospective single-center data support surgical excision of cardiac myxomas; leaves open optimal approach in broader populations.

Structured PICO

Population

21 patients who underwent surgical excision of a primary, single, and sporadic cardiac myxoma; mean age 55.2 years, 62% female.

Intervention

Surgical excision of cardiac myxoma (right atrial trans-septal incision used in 76.5% of left atrial myxoma cases).

Outcome

Postoperative complications, early mortality, and long-term survival.hard clinical

Surgical excision of cardiac myxoma is safe with low morbidity and mortality, with the right atrial trans-septal incision being a recommended approach for left atrial tumors.
