Left Atrial Myxoma with Concomitant Coronary Artery Disease... a Rare Occurrence.
J Cardiovascular Dis Jan ;15(3):82-4.

Atrial myxoma is the most common benign cardiac tumor. The ages and clinical presentation of patients who have atrial myxoma and coronary artery disease are similar. Simultaneous coronary artery bypass grafting and resection of left atrial myxoma has been rarely reported. We describe a case of 47 year old male who presented to our hospital with unstable angina. On investigation, he was found to have a large left atrial mass along with significant coronary artery disease. The patient underwent surgical excision of the mass and coronary artery bypass grafting. The histopathology report of the mass was compatible with myxoma. The postoperative period was uneventful except successfully treated wound infection and the patient is doing well, with no recurrence of myxoma.
