Discussion

Tumor vascularity' on arteriography may occur with organized left atrial thrombus; this case leaves open angiographic specificity versus myxoma.

Population

62-year-old woman with mitral valve disease and a large filling defect in the left atrium

Intervention

Coronary arteriography and surgery

Outcome

Identification of the nature of the left atrial filling defect
