An unusual presentation of atrial myxoma.

Shaemala Anpalakhan, Dewi Ramasamy1, Kin Sing Fan.   

Abstract

Myxomas are uncommon primary cardiac tumours that usually affect the left atrium. We herein report the case of a patient who presented with right heart failure and proteinuria, leading to the diagnosis of atrial myxoma. Surgical resection resulted in resolution of the patient's symptoms.
