Right-atrial myxoma clinically mimicking recurrence of rheumatic valve disease long time after mitral valve repair

Right atrial myxomas are rare. Its occurrence in a previously operated patient of rheumatic mitral stenosis posed clinical diagnostic challenge. We herein report a case of right atrial myxoma who had undergone mitral valve repair 20 years ago and now presented in congestive heart failure. The tumor...
