dc.description.abstractMyxoma is the most commonly seen primary cardiac tumour, with an incidence of 80-90% in the left atrium, followed by the right atrium and ventricle. Patients with atrial myxomas present with intracardiac obstruction, embolization to the pulmonary and systemic circulation, or constitutional symptoms. Hepatomegaly and increase of the liver transaminases levels involvement in myxomas are rare, has been described to cause hepatic insufficiency. We describe an interesting case of a 47-year-old patient with systemic findings and symptoms, which was primary symptomatially treated for several months in psychiatry, neurology and chest diseases clinics in other centres but never diagnosed, and undergoing emergency surgery in our clinic following determination of left atrial myxoma at tests performed by our cardiology department. The patient had no symptoms at examinations performed 6 months and 1 year postoperatively, and no pathological findings were determined.
