Abstract
Myxomas are the most common primary intra-cardiac tumors in adults. Myxoma occurring in a preschooler is very rare, and cardiac surgery in acute stroke is a challenging decision. We present a rare case of acute cardio-embolic stroke in a 3-year-old child due to left atrial myxoma which was successfully treated. © Indian Association of Cardiovascular-Thoracic Surgeons 2020.Entities:
