The left atrium, due to its large size, is prone to thrombus formation, and the presence of a large mass is more suggestive of a clot. Myxomas are some of the most common benign heart tumors; however, they have been reported rarely in rheumatic mitral stenosis. Here, we describe a patient with mitral stenosis who presented with a large left atrial mass, which was ultimately diagnosed as a tumor.
