  • Title: Carney complex.
    Author: Zahedi RG, Wald DS, Ohri S.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2006 Jul; 82(1):320-2. PubMed ID: 16798242.
    Abstract:
    We report an illustrated case of a 61-year-old woman with multiple atrial myxomas and cutaneous hyperpigmentation as part of the Carney complex. The case is notable for an unusually late presentation in life and a strong family history of atrial myxomas and sudden death. The importance of regular life-long echocardiographic screening and surveillance in all family members of affected cases is emphasized.
