abstract={Cardiac tumors are rare disorders with an incidence of <0.33%. Primary cardiac tumors are extremely rare with an incidence between 0.0017% and 0.19%.  Nearly 75% of cardiac tumors are benign with atrial myxomas representing nearly 50%. The majority of cardiac myxomas (75%) are located in the left atrium, 23% in right atrium and 2% in the ventricular cavity. This report presents a rare case of an asymptomatic patient with a left ventricular myxoma attached to the chordae tendinae of the mitral valve.},
