Intracardiac Extension of Lung Carcinoma Presenting as an Atrial Myxoma: A Case Report
ABSTRACT Left atrial (LA) mass is most commonly presumed to be a cardiac myxoma, as it is approximately 75% of primary cardiac tumors, with a strong predilection for the LA. In rare instances, primary lung carcinoma may extend to the LA, creating an intracardiac mass indistinguishable from a myxoma on initial echocardiographic assessment.

Left ventricular fibrosarcoma in a 4‐year‐old labrador
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.

Left Atrial Myxoma Hypervascularized from the Right Coronary Artery: An Interesting Cath Lab Finding
Primary cardiac tumors are rare and approximately half of them are atrial myxomas. They rarely remain asymptomatic, especially if large. The imaging of a myxoma by contrast dye during coronary angiography is an infrequent sign, which clarifies the ...
