Abstract

Surgical resection has been the treatment of choice for cardiac myxomas, but older age and comorbidities relegate many patients to observation. Pure percutaneous removal of left atrial myxomas is both intriguing and challenging. We report a successful percutaneous technique for removal of left atrial cardiac myxoma in a nonsurgical candidate. (Level of Difficulty: Advanced.)
