Left atrial myxoma associated with mitral valve pathology in pregnancy.

Ioannis Koukis1, Theodore Velissaris, Alex Pandian.   

Abstract

We report a case of a left atrial myxoma associated with mitral valve regurgitation in a pregnant patient, describing the importance of transoesophageal or transthoracic echocardiography, preoperatively and during the operation, as a useful tool to rule out any associated valvular damage or mitral annular dilatation as an underlying cause of mitral regurgitation.
