Overview

Other diagnostic study for cardiac myxoma includes cardiac angiography, which often demonstrates contrast media-enhanced tumor vasculature. [1]

Other Imaging Findings

Cardiac Angiography

The angiographic findings of cardiac myxoma demonstrate feeding vessels, contrast medium poolings, and clusters of tortuous vessels that correspond to tumor vasculature. In some cases, it is considered appropriate that older patients undergo coronary angiography to rule out the presence of ischemic heart diseases.[2]

Indications

  • Coronary angiography may be performed to detect vascular supply of the tumor by the coronary arteries.[3]
