Abstract
A case is described of Streptococcus viridans endocarditis involving a left atrial myxoma. The diagnosis was made by echocardiography and the infected tumour was successfully treated by surgical removal. A review of the published literature about left atrial myxomas underlines the importance of performing echocardiography in all patients with suspected endocarditis.
