- Understanding Cardiac Myxoma Recurrence: A Case ReportPublication . Carvalho, MS; Andrade, MJ; Abecasis, J; Gouveia, R; Branco, LM; Neves, JP; Mendes, MRecurrence of cardiac myxoma is a rare condition, observed in about 3% of patients in sporadic cases, although it is more frequent in familial ones. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain such recurrence, and the importance of increased vascularization as a facilitating feature is the subject of debate. The authors report the case of a non-familial right atrial myxoma, unusual for both its histopathology and recurrence.
