The combination of EA with right-sided myxoma is exceedingly rare, and, in this case, it may be that the apical displacement of the tricuspid valve was protective against right atrioventricular obstruction. We are reminded that although subtle abnormalities on routine investigations can be of limited significance, they can also indicate more serious underlying pathology and so consideration should be given to an appropriate cascade of further investigations to yield a timely diagnosis and enable prompt treatment.
