Description
We report a case of left ventricular myxoma with embolization to the left posterior cerebral artery, causing acute visual loss. The tumor was successfully resected and a follow-up echocardiography after 21 months revealed no evidence of tumor recurrence. The patient also had a past history of testicular seminoma. We believe that this is the first case report of an association of cardiac myxoma and testicular seminoma.
