TI  - Multiple left atrial myxoma: case report.

AB  - Primary cardiac tumors are infrequent, with an incidence between 0.001% and 0.2%, 
      mostly comprising benign histological characteristics in 75% of these cases. 
      Myxomas account for approximately 50% of these neoplasms. As regards location, 
      75-80% of myxomas are in the left atrium, 18% in the right atrium, and more 
      rarely in the ventricles. We report a case of a patient in functional class (FC) 
      IV New York Heart Association (NYHA) and postoperative histological diagnosis of 
      multilobular myxoma originating in the posterior left atrial wall. Clinical 
      evaluation 3 months after surgery suggested NYHA functional class I and 
      echocardiographic absence of intracardiac masses.
