AbstractAortic valve replacement is a safe therapy that can reverse cardiac remodeling and increase cardiac contractility, improve symptoms and quality of life. We presented a case of a 35-year-old male patient admitted to the Emergency Institute for Cardiovascular Disease and Transplantation of Târgu Mureș, Romania, due to severe aortic stenosis with severely depressed ejection fraction, left atrial myxome and a history of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary thromboembolism. He underwent excision of the aortic valve and replacement with a mechanical prosthesis, excision of left atrial myxoma and tricuspid annuloplasty. The postoperative evolution was favourable with a significant recovery of the left ventricular systolic function and regression of cardiac symptomatology. This case was particular due to the rapid progression of the aortic pathology with the reduction of cardiac (systolic) function in a relatively short time as well as the occurrence of the thromboembolic event unrelated to the left atrial myxoma and rather associated with the background of cardiac failure with low cardiac output.

Abstract Background Myocarditis is an uncommon, potentially life-threatening disease that presents with a wide range of symptoms. In acute myocarditis, chest pain (CP) may mimic typical angina and also be associated with electrocardiographic changes, including an elevation of the ST-segment. A large percentage (20–56%) of myxomas are found incidentally. Case summary A 62-year-old female presenting with sudden onset CP and infero-lateral ST-elevation in the electrocardiogram. The diagnosis of ST-elevation myocardial infarction was presumed and administered tenecteplase. The patient was immediately transported to a percutaneous coronary intervention centre. She complained of intermittent diplopia during transport and referred constitutional symptoms for the past 2 weeks. Coronary angiography showed normal arteries. The echocardiogram revealed moderate to severe left ventricular systolic dysfunction due to large areas of akinesia sparing most of the basal segments, and a mobile mass inside the left atrium attached to the septum. The cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) suggested the diagnosis of myocarditis with concomitant left atrial myxoma. The patient underwent resection of the myxoma. Neurological evaluation was performed due to mild vertigo while walking and diplopia in extreme eye movements. The head magnetic resonance imaging identified multiple infracentimetric lesions throughout the cerebral parenchyma compatible with an embolization process caused by fragments of the tumour. Discussion Myocarditis can have various presentations may mimic acute myocardial infarction and CMR is critical to establish the diagnosis. Myxoma with embolic complications requires emergent surgery. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case reported in the applicable literature of a myxoma diagnosed during a myocarditis episode.
