This video clip showing two-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography. A huge myxoma is seen occupying almost the whole of the left atrium (LA) with a broad attachment to the atrial septum. Highly reflectile component of the tumor represents calcification. The portion of the tumor protruding into the left ventricle (LV) in diastole is very mobile and because of this, it has a greater potential to embolize as compared to the remaining tumor. (RA: Right atrium; RV: Right ventricle).
