Discussion

May support arteriographic diagnosis of left atrial myxoma; single case report leaves clinical utility open.

Population

n=1, 51-year-old Caucasian male with left atrial myxoma presenting with intermittent dyspnea, orthopnea, ankle edema, and weight gain.

Intervention

Selective coronary arteriography, echocardiography, and surgical removal

Outcome

Demonstration of tumor vascularity

Selective coronary arteriography can demonstrate tumor vascularity in left atrial myxoma, aiding in its diagnosis.

Marshall et al. (1969) studied this question.
