Case Report (n=1)
Surgical resection of a giant right ventricular myxoma can be successfully performed with an uneventful postoperative recovery.
Rao et al. (2023) conducted a case report in Giant right ventricular myxoma (n=1). Surgical resection was evaluated on Postoperative recovery. Surgical resection of a giant right ventricular myxoma in a middle-aged man was successful, with an uneventful postoperative recovery.
