The benign nature and rare occurrence of cardiac myxoma as a possible consequence of the limited cardiac proliferative/ regenerative potential: a systematic review

BMC Cancer, 2023
Background Cardiac Myxoma is a primary tumor of heart. Its origins, rarity of the occurrence of primary cardiac tumors and how it may be related to limited cardiac regenerative potential, are not yet entirely known.

Co‐Occurrence of Agminated Lentigines, Café‐Au‐Lait Macules, and Vitiligo: A Case Report and Literature Review

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Lentigines, café‐au‐lait macules (CALMs), and vitiligo are pigmentary disorders that seldom occur together in a single individual. Their co‐occurrence may indicate underlying genetic syndromes requiring differential diagnosis. We report an 18‐year‐old male who developed CALMs at age 11, agminated lentigines at age 13, and vitiligo on the right

Left ventricular fibrosarcoma in a 4‐year‐old labrador

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract A 4‐year‐old, male, neutered labrador presented for investigations into a single episode of collapse and an intracardiac mass. Echocardiography and computed tomography confirmed the presence of a large soft tissue mass within the left ventricular lumen, which nearly obstructed the left ventricular outflow tract.

Infected left atrial myxoma with Streptococcus gordonii: case report and literature review

Frontiers in Oncology
Cardiac myxoma is a relatively common type of benign heart tumor, but infectious myxoma is rare. The symptoms of non-infected cardiac myxoma and infected cardiac myxoma are similar and mostly nonspecific, which can easily lead to delayed diagnosis ...

Immunohistochemical characterization of glandular elements in glandular cardiac myxoma: Study of six cases

Indian Journal of Pathology and Microbiology, 2017
Back ground: Glandular cardiac myxoma has varying clinical presentation with uncertain histogenesis and debatable immunohistochemical profile. Glandular epithelial differentiations are rare phenomenon known to be present as an intrinsic component of the ...

Minimally Invasive Thoracoscopic Resection of a Giant Right‐Atrial Lipoma on the Beating Heart: A Case Report

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Primary cardiac lipomas are rare benign tumors that are usually indolent but may cause compression or arrhythmia when large. We sought to describe the safety and feasibility of a totally thoracoscopic, off‐pump approach for their resection. A 33‐year‐old asymptomatic woman was found to have a 5.1 × 3.6 cm fat‐density mass at the roof of the ...
