Abstract
We describe a young male patient who suffered myocardial infarction and was discovered to have a biatrial myxoma where stalks originated from opposite sides at the same point of the atrial septum, also described as "myxoma twins". The rarity of having a biatrial mirror image myxoma among cardiac myxomas, complicated by an even rarer event of coronary embolism in such milieu, prompted us to present the following case report.
