ABSTRACT
We report the case of a 67 year old female with a left
atrial myxoma of 6.5 x 7 cm, causing severe mitral regurgitation
diagnosed by preoperative transthoracic
echocardiography. Successful resection of the tumor was
performed during the operation and confirmed the presence
of mitral regurgitation secondary to mitral annular
dilation. Mitral valve defect was corrected by means
of annuloplasty ring insertion. Our case suggest that it
is essential to evaluate the mitral valve in patients with
atrial myxoma prior and at time of operation.
