Cardiac myxoma is the most common primary tumor of the heart. The clinical presentation ranges from asymptomatic to symptomatic with constitutional symptoms, obstructive symptoms, or evidence of embolism. Most cases are sporadic; recurrence rates are low after surgical excision for these cases. We present a case of an asymptomatic right atrial myxoma which recurred 1 year after its resection.
