Left atrial myxoma in a child with unique presentation: chest pain.

Tsuyoshi Kaneko1, Jon-Cecil Walkes, Felix W Tsai.   

Abstract

We present a 16-year-old girl who presented with chest pain. Given her obesity and positive family history, she was felt to have atherosclerotic heart disease. However, an echocardiogram showed an atrial myxoma, which prompted surgical excision. This case supports the routine use of echocardiography and widened differential diagnosis when presented with pediatric chest pain.
