Myxoma, a rare type of intracardiac tumor, forms a very small percentage of the cardiac cases. Reports of biatrial myxoma are rarer, with cases of single tumor reaching both atria being more common. Here, we present an unusual case of two independently growing atrial myxoma in a 29-year-old female. We emphasize that early recognition of symptoms, confirmation of diagnosis by transesophageal echocardiography, and prompt surgical excision remain vital in the management of such patients. The patient in the present case was managed successfully with no evidences of recurrence at the last follow-up.

Primary transcatheter VSR closure using ASD occluders is a feasible approach which can provide reasonable survival outcomes along with equitable mortality rates.

Objective: T-Flex registry was designed to investigate the safety and clinical performance of the ultrathin (60 µm) strut biodegradable polymercoated sirolimus-eluting stent (SES) with a unique long dual Z (LDZ) link design on a cobalt-chromium stent platform (Sahajanand Medical Technologies Pvt. Ltd., Surat, India) in a real-world all-comer population including high-risk subgroups. Methods: This was an observational, multicenter, single-arm, and investigator-initiated retrospective registry. A total of 1,203 patients treated with an ultrathin biodegradable polymer-coated SES, irrespective of lesion complexity, comorbidities, and acute presentation were analyzed from May 2016 to January 2017. The primary endpoint was the one-year incidence of target lesion failure (TLF), a composite of cardiac death, target-vessel myocardial infarction (TV-MI), and clinically-indicated target lesion revascularization (CI-TLR). Stent thrombosis was assessed as an additional safety endpoint.Results: At the one-year follow-up, TLF was observed in 3.8% [95% confidence interval (CI) 2.9-5.1] patients, composed of 0.6% (95% CI: 0.3-1.3) cardiac death, 1.3% (95% CI: 0.8-2.2) TV-MI, and 1.9% (95% CI: 1.3-2.9) CI-TLR. In the high-risk subgroups, TLF at one-year was 6.8% (95% CI: 4.6-9.8) in patients with diabetes, 5.2% (95% CI: 3.4-8) in patients with small-vessel disease, 6.1% (95% CI: 3.9-9.6) in patients with ST-elevation myocardial infarction, and 4.5% (95% CI: 2.4-8.3) in patients with total occlusion. During follow-up, stent thrombosis was reported in 0.8% (95% CI: 0.4-1.5) patients in the overall population. Conclusion: Low event rates of TLF and stent thrombosis at one-year follow-up indicate that this ultrathin biodegradable polymer-coated SES has encouraging safety and clinical performance in real-world all-comer populations as well as in high-risk subgroups.
