[Left Ventricular Mixoma: A case report].

Abstract

El mixoma es un tumor cardíaco primario de poca prevalencia en la población, con predilección por la aurícula izquierda seguido por la aurícula derecha. La localización en los ventrículos es infrecuente y la sintomatología varía según el lugar de origen. Sus complicaciones asociadas pueden tratarse o evitarse con la resección quirúrgica oportuna. Presentamos el caso de una mujer de 15 años de edad, sintomática, con una masa en el ventrículo izquierdo. La masa fue resecada quirúrgicamente, y el estudio histopatológico confirmó que se trataba de un mixoma.

Myxoma is a primary cardiac tumor of low prevalence in the population, with a predilection for the left atrium followed by the right atrium. The location in the ventricles is infrequent and the symptoms depends of the place of origin. Its associated complications and its particular form of debut can be avoided with timely surgical resection. We present the case of a 15-year-old symptomatic woman with a mass in the left ventricle. The mass was surgically resected, and the histopathological study confirmed a myxoma.
