Abstract
Background and Clinical Significance: Atrial myxomas are rare, benign cardiac tumors, most commonly originating in the left atrium, with potential for serious embolic and obstructive complications. Case Presentation: We report a 67-year-old woman presenting with acute chest pain and NSTEMI whose coronary angiography results were normal. Echocardiography revealed a large, heterogeneous, stalk-attached left atrial mass, confirmed by transesophageal imaging. Surgical resection was performed two days after diagnosis, and histopathology confirmed it was an atrial myxoma. Postoperative recovery was uneventful, with reassuring follow-up echocardiography. Conclusions: Echocardiography remains an invaluable tool for the identification of atrial myxomas and early surgical excision is critical, as they have an excellent prognosis.
