Sir .—We noted with interest the report by Dunnigan et al (Journal1981;135:420-421) of a child with left atrial myxoma. Left atrial myxoma is a rare lesion in the pediatric age group, with high morbidity and mortality if undiagnosed. The tumor may be associated with constitutional symptoms, with peripheral embolization, and with obstruction of left ...

This report of a 14 year old boy with a left atrial myxoma and his 16 year old brother with a right atrial myxoma documents the familial occurrence of cardiac myxoma. The noninvasive techniques utilized to help establish the diagnosis of intracardiac tumor are described.

The familial variant of cardiac myxoma is known to be an autosomally dominant disease. Early diagnosis, and removal of the tumours, are of great importance. In this regard, echocardiography is considered the simplest and most reliable diagnostic method. We report our experience with echocardiographic diagnosis of a family with atrial myxomas.

CARDIAC tumors have long been of interest and have been the subject of extensive review articles.1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Most of these tumors are secondary, however, and the cardiac problem is superimposed on primary cancer elsewhere, often with widespread metastases.

Tumors that were identical in morphology to a previously excised atrial myxoma were found in the choroid plexus and the scapula of a 46-year-old woman 8 and 10.5 years, respectively, after cardiac surgery. Ultrastructurally the scapular lesion resembled previously reported atrial myxomas.

A family is described in which the mother and three of seven children had atrial myxoma. The mother had biatrial myxoma; surgical treatment resulted in massive intraoperative embolization and death. Surgery was sucessful in two sons with left atrial myxoma and systemic arterial embolization.

Familial and biatrial myxomas of the heart have rarely been described. We describe a familial atrial myxoma involving a parent with biatrial and a child with a left atrial myxoma. Atrial myxomas were diagnosed preoperatively by echocardiography and successfully removed at operation.
