“…CWD help reveal grades of mitral inflow obstruction. [12] A mean pressure gradient of 6-10 mmHg indicates moderate obstruction and a gradient of more than 10 mmHg, severe obstruction. The basic principles for managing such patients are similar to those of mitral stenosis and include a carefully planned, balanced anesthetic approach using opiates, benzodiazepines and volatile anesthetic agents.…”

A 35-year-old woman presented with 4 months history of progressively increasing intermittent dyspnea and hemoptysis. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a loculated mass in the left atrium (LA). A provisional diagnosis of LA myxoma was made. Intraoperatively the tumor was found extending into and closely adherent to the left pulmonary vein and could not be completely cleared off from the pulmonary venous wall. The histopathological examination of the tumor revealed it to be a myxoid malignant fibrous histiocytoma.
