Abstract (2. Language): 
Myxoma is the most common type of primary cardiac tumors. Majority of cardiac myxomas are solitary and benign. It usually occurs in the left atrium and has a pedicle attached to the interatrial septum around the fossa ovalis. It is associated with different clinical symptoms of mechanical intracardiac obstruction, embolism or positional disturbances but may rarely remain asymptomatic for a long time as in our case. Pulmonary hypertension is a rare clinical condition associated with myxomas. In this paper, we present a large, immobile, left atrial myxoma filling the whole left atrium and causing pulmonary hypertension.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Miksoma en sık görülen primer kardiyak tümör tipidir. Kardiyak miksomaların çoğunluğu tek ve beningdir. Genellikle sol atriyumda oluşur ve interatriyal septumun fossa ovalis civarına bağlanan bir pediküle sahiptir. Miksoma mekanik intrakardiyak tıkanma, emboli veya pozisyonal bozukluklar gibi farklı klinik semptomlarla ilişkilidir, fakat nadiren bizim olgumuzda da olduğu gibi, uzun süre asemptomatik kalabilir. Pulmoner hipertansiyon miksomaya bağlı nadir bir klinik durumdur. Biz bu yazıda, büyük, sol atriyumu tamamen dolduran, hareketsiz ve pulmoner hipertansiyona neden olan bir miksomayı sunduk.
