Abstract

Although cardiac myxomas are most common intracardiac mass in adults, the existence of myxomas in childhood is extremely rare. Myxomas may have familial inheritance and risk of fatal complications as arrthymia, sudden death, embolic events. We presented successfully operated two cases with cardiac myxoma localized in the left atrium that were diagnosed echocardiographically before occurring any complication.

Özet

Kardiyak miksomalar erişkinde en sık rastlanan benign kalp tümörleri olmasına rağmen, çocukluk döneminde miksoma görülmesi çok nadirdir. Miksomalar ailesel genetik geçiş özelliği ve aritmi, ani ölüm ve embolik olaylar gibi fatal seyir riski taşıyabilir. Kliniğimizde ekokardiyografi ile tanısı konularak komplikasyon ortaya çıkmadan ameliyat edilen sol atriyuma lokalize iki miksoma olgusunu literatür eşliğinde sunmaktayız.
