Cerebral vascular accidents of uncertain origin in any patient pose a burden on the family physician to uncover the underlying cause by means of a thorough and concise workup. Even though cardiac tumors are rare, missing the diagnosis may lead to devastating results. The case reported here is of a 40-year-old man with a left atrial myxoma as the cause of his embolic cerebral infarct.
