Large left atrial myxoma with synchronous laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma: A case report
To our knowledge, this is the first reported case of synchronous cardiac myxoma with laryngeal malignancy. Individualized treatment strategy should be adopted to manage synchronous tumors in a multidisciplinary approach. The most life-threatening condition needs be treated first. Single resection, staged operations or simultaneous resection of both tumors have been reported with good outcomes.
