A patient with crescendo angina and severe three-vessel coronary disease had a left atrial myxoma found incidentally and which was removed during coronary bypass surgery. Preoperative echocardiogram revealed only coarse diastolic mitral valve fluttering without other echocardiographic features of left atrial myxoma. Postoperative echocardiogram showed disappearance of mitral valve fluttering. The isolated finding of diastolic mitral valve fluttering by echocardiography may be associated with occult left atrial myxoma.
一名患有进行性心绞痛和严重三支冠状动脉疾病的患者偶然发现患有左心房黏液瘤，并在冠状动脉搭桥手术期间将其切除。术前超声心动图仅显示二尖瓣舒张期粗糙扑动，而无左心房黏液瘤的其他超声心动图特征。术后超声心动图显示二尖瓣扑动消失。超声心动图单独发现二尖瓣舒张期扑动可能与隐匿性左心房黏液瘤有关。
