Familial hereditary cardiac myxoma: report of three cases and literature review
Journal: BMC Cardiovascular Disorders
Year: 2025

Paternal-to-daughter transmission of PRKAR1A mutations is uncommon compared with typical familial cardiac myxomas. All three cases in this series represent this transmission pattern. Surgical resection resulted in a favorable recovery without sequelae. Timely diagnosis and intervention are essential to prevent complications, and regular follow-up is necessary to detect recurrence. This study reports three cases of familial cardiac myxoma and includes a literature review.
