Giant Left Atrial Myxoma Revealed by Neurological Manifestation in a Young Female Patient
International Journal of Innovative Science and Research TechnologyCardiac myxoma is a prevalent benign neoplasm that arises inside the cardiac tissue and exhibits a gradual growth pattern. The annual incidence rate of cardiac myxoma is approximately 0.5–1 cases per 1,000,000 persons.

Glandular cardiac myxoma: case report with literature review [PDF]
, 2014 Glandular cardiac myxoma is rare, representing only 5% of cardiac myxomas. A 51-year-old female developed embolic events caused by left atrial myxoma. She underwent myxoma resection and had an uneventful postoperative course.

A case report of left atrial myxoma presenting as embolic stroke
Clinical Case Reports, 2023 Key Clinical Message Embolic stroke may rarely be the first presenting symptom of atrial myxoma. Multiple infarcts should be evaluated for embolic causes. Correct etiological diagnosis in cardio‐embolic stroke guides proper management strategy.

The Impact of Standard Ablation Strategies for Atrial Fibrillation on Cardiovascular Performance in a Four-chamber Heart Model [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Atrial fibrillation is one of the most frequent cardiac arrhythmias in the industrialized world and ablation therapy is the method of choice for many patients. However, ablation scars alter the electrophysiological activation and the mechanical behavior of the affected atria.

Left atrial thrombus mimicking atrial myxoma on imaging studies in a patient with cardiac transplant [PDF]
, 2014 Left atrial thrombus can develop in patients with atrial fibrillation and/or a dilated left atrium such as seen in patients with heart failure. In cardiac transplant patients with bi-atrial anastomosis, the suture line can be a potential nidus for ...

Segmentation and LV Quantification Challenges, 9th International Workshop,
STACOM 2018, pp.292-301, 2018 Segmentation of the left atrium (LA) is crucial for assessing its anatomy in both pre-operative atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation planning and post-operative follow-up studies. In this paper, we present a fully automated framework for left atrial segmentation in gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance images (GE-MRI) based on deep learning. We propose a

Fast characterization of inducible regions of atrial fibrillation models with multi-fidelity Gaussian process classification [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Computational models of atrial fibrillation have successfully been used to predict optimal ablation sites. A critical step to assess the effect of an ablation pattern is to pace the model from different, potentially random, locations to determine whether arrhythmias can be induced in the atria.

Atypical presentation of left atrial myxoma: a case report
Journal of the Pakistan Medical AssociationAtrial Myxoma is the most common primary benign tumour of the heart, commonly found in the left atrium. It typically presents in young females with characteristic features such as, constitutional symptoms, chest pain, and cardiac murmurs.

Veterinary Record Case Reports, EarlyView.Abstract A 5‐year‐old, male, neutered, domestic short‐haired cat presented for lethargy and anorexia and was diagnosed with a cardiac tumour and likely pulmonary metastases by ultrasonography and contrast computed tomography of the thorax. Clinically, the cat presented with right‐sided heart failure, pleural and pericardial effusion and ensuing ...
