What is a cardiac myxoma?

Cardiac myxoma is a common primary cardiac tumor formed by the transformation of primitive mesenchymal cells under the endocardium.

Cardiac myxoma occurs in people aged 30-50, and the prevalence rate of women is generally higher than that of men. The disease is generally located in the left atrium of the patient. When cardiac myxoma occurs, it may be caused by chest tightness, palpitations, dizziness, dyspnea, jugular vein distension, ascites, etc. If the patient does not take corresponding treatment measures in time, it may cause further development of the disease, causing arrhythmia, cerebral artery embolism and other complications.
