Abstract
IMPLICATIONS: The authors report the intraoperative diagnosis using transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) of an unsuspected myxoma in a patient admitted for an acute occlusion of the aorta, resulting in emergency excision of the atrial tumor. This observation illustrates the usefulness of intraoperative TEE examination to identify life-threatening pathology.Entities:
