Background: There is an increasing demand for minimally invasive myxoma resection. This study aimed to investigate the safety and feasibility of minimally invasive myxoma resection.
Methods: In this retrospective study, we collected information from 95 patients who underwent myxoma resection between January 2016 and December 2020. Based on the operative approach, the patients were divided into the minimally invasive myxoma resection (Mini-MR) group (N = 30) and the sternotomy myxoma resection (SMR) group (N = 65). Intraoperative and postoperative data were compared between the two groups.
Results: The postoperative ventilator-assisted time, CSICU time, and postoperative hospital stay were shorter in the Mini-MR group than in the SMR (13.05 ± 4.98 vs. 17.07 ± 9.52 h; 1.73 ± 0.29 vs. 2.27 ± 1.53 d; 6.20 ± 1.50 vs. 9.48 ± 3.37 d, respectively), and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Mini-MR had lower postoperative drainage and blood transfusion rate in the first 24 h compared with SMR (38.93 ± 69.62 vs. 178.25 ± 153.06 ml; 26.6% vs. 63.1%), and the differences were statistically significant (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: Mini-MR has the advantages of less CSICU stay time, less ventilator time, less postoperative drainage in the first 24h, less blood transfusion, fewer postoperative hospital stays, and faster recovery. Mini-MR is a safe and feasible surgical procedure for myxoma resection.

Background: Cardiac myxoma rarely occurs in the right ventricle, and as is a benign disease, it rarely shows high positivity on 18F fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT).
Case Presentation: We present herein the case of a 77-year-old woman who was found to have a heart murmur during a routine health checkup. Further examination revealed a 27-mm tumor in the right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) and moderate aortic valve stenosis.
Background: Primary cardiac tumors (PCT), such as myxoma, are rare and predominantly benign. Angiofibroma tumors are an extremely rare subtype of PCT, reported in less than ten cases. In this study, we presented a mixed tumor of myxoma and angiofibroma for the first time in the human heart.

Background: Stroke is one of the leading causes of mortality and disability and can be rarely caused by cardiac myxoma.
Case Summary: Here, we report about a 56-year-old man who suffered from a stroke presented with acute dysarthria and left hemiparesis. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain revealed an acute stroke.

Introduction: Cardiac myxomas are the most common benign neoplasms of the heart, mainly located in the left atrium. The preferred treatment is the resection of the myxoma. This method not only prevents complications but also has a low recurrence rate.

Introduction And Importance: This case highlights the importance of echocardiography in diagnosing pulmonary embolism and the need for careful timing of preoperative transesophageal echocardiogram in patients with potentially detachable intracardiac masses as a tumor detachment during TEE led to a life-threatening pulmonary embolism.
Case Presentation: A 30-year-old man with a history of treated pulmonary embolism had progressive dyspnea. Tests revealed a mass in the right atrium and a new pulmonary embolism.
