Embolism caused by cardial myxoma
1983
: Myxomas of the heart may present a systemic embolization before heart valve occlusion. A histological examination of peripheral emboli may result in the diagnosis. The tumour should be removed early before the occurrence of irreversible embolic complications. An embolic history could be found in 5 of our 8 cases. Two patients died immediately after complete peripheral arterial obstruction.
