Myxoma is one of the most common benign primary cardiac tumors, usually detected at ages between 30 and 60 years. It accounts for 50% of the primary cardiac tumors. The most common location of a myxoma is the left atrium. Myxomas are more prevalent in females. The clinical outcomes can differ depending on the tumor’s size, location, and architecture.
