[Transesophageal echocardiographic diagnosis of a left atrial myxoma].

We report the case of a 65 year old woman with a left atrial myxoma. The only clinical manifestation were two transient ischemic attacks of cerebral origin. The diagnosis was established by transesophageal echocardiography because of poor definition of the transtoracic approach. We comment the clinical and diagnostic features of this type of tumors, with emphasize in the value of transesophageal echocardiography.
