Infected left atrial myxoma with concomitant mitral valve endocarditis

PR Vogt, R Jenni and MI Turina
Clinic for Cardiovascular Surgery, University Hospital, Zurich, Switzerland.

Myxomas are the most common primary cardiac tumors. They may simulate infective endocarditis but are rarely infected. Currently, 17 infected left atrial myxomas have been reported in the literature [1, 7, 8, 10, 11]. We present a patient with infected left atrial myxoma combined with mitral valve endocarditis, treated by excision of the myxoma and mitral valve reconstruction.
