Although several studies have shown that myocardial contrast echocardiography and 18-FDG PET/CT can differentiate between benign and malignant intracardiac masses, it is rarely used in practice to evaluate myxoma. This case describes the contrast echocardiography and 18-FDG PET/CT findings of a giant myxoma with an atypical location and subclinical symptoms.
