Abstract
Atypical cardiac myxomas are a rare occurrence and may present with a variety of clinical manifestations depending on the morphology and location. We present three cases of myxomas located atypically on the left atrial appendage ridge, chordae of the mitral valve, and right atrium. Echocardiography plays a prominent role in the diagnosis and follow-up of these patients.
