    Abstract:
    Right ventricular myxoma is very rare with the only 19 cases in the Japanese literature. We report on a 26-year-old woman with a right ventricular myxoma which was found by cardiac systolic murmur at a medical examination and successfully excised. Echocardiography and coronary angiography is very useful in deciding the location of insertion on the right ventricle. Right atriotomy prior to right ventriculotomy was important for right ventriculotomy and necessary for complete excision. Clinical characteristics, and diagnostic and therapeutic aspects are discussed.
