Case Report (n=1)
This case report demonstrates the successful surgical excision of a rare right ventricular myxoma causing right ventricular outflow tract obstruction.
Jiang et al. (2015) conducted a case report in Right Ventricular Myxoma (n=1). Surgical excision was evaluated on Postoperative recovery and recurrence at 1 year. Surgical excision of a giant right ventricular myxoma causing outflow tract obstruction resulted in normal right ventricular and tricuspid valve function with no evidence of recurrence at one year.
