Abstract
Cardiac myxomas are benign intracavitary neoplasms. Their incidence in cardiac surgery is approximately 0.3%. Symptoms of cardiac myxomas are typically variable, from obstruction of mitral valve to coronary embolism resulting in acute myocardial infarction. In this case, left atrial myxoma is presented as paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia.
