Abstract

A 32-year-old female with left atrial myxoma who was in New York Heart Association functional class IV, underwent a minimally invasive excision of the tumor through a right parasternal approach. Early follow-up demonstrated that this technique was effective and had the benefits of low cost, rapid recovery, decreased hospital stay, and a good cosmetic result.
