Abstract
A 69-year-old woman has been complaining from presencop and palpitation for 4 months. Cardiac examination revealed middiastolic rulman, which changed by position. Transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography showed normal left ventricular function, mild mitral regurgitation and large right and left atrial masses. This mass prolapsed through the mitral valve into the left ventricle during diastole and caused dynamic obstruction. Coronary angiography revealed that the masses were supplied via left and right coronary artery without any significant stenosis of the coronary arteries. Prediagnosed, however, as multiple myxomas, the results of the pathology indicated a completely different origin.Entities:
