Abstract
Left atrium myxomas are the most frequent heart tumors. Assessment of this phenomenon is largely echocardiographic, since both TTE and TEE provide information on size, shape, and hemodynamic consequences of the tumor. In this publication, we bring forward the similarities between morphological assessment through transillumination echocardiography and pathologic anatomy, highlighting a possible study field for the future.
