Anesthetic Management of a Voluminous Left Atrial Myxoma Resection in a 19 Weeks Pregnant with Atypical Clinical Presentation

الملخص EN

We report the case of a semi-urgent cardiac surgery, in a 19 gestation age pregnant.

Despite the fact that the patient was asymptomatic, except for some palpitations, a large left auricle (LA) myxoma was fortuitously diagnosed with transthoracic echocardiography (TEE).

Considering the important embolic risk, the tumor was successfully removed during cardiac surgery under cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB).

Fetal bradycardia following defibrillation under stable maternal and CPB conditions was successfully managed.

The postoperative period and remainder of the pregnancy was smooth and the delivery uneventful.
