Chronic headaches with aura as a neurologic manifestation of Carney Complex- A case report

The primary cardiac tumors are extremely rare and atrial myxomas are representing approximately 50% of all cardiac tumors, left atrial myxomas are the most common, the symptoms are many included being migraines, dyspnea, and chest pain. In this report, we present a 45-year-old male presented with chronic headaches with aura was triggered by physical exertion. Taking Ibuprofen 600 mg three times daily provided relief to the patient. Braim MRI showing extension from the right pontocerebellar sibling to the internal acoustic canal 16.5x8 mm sized mass lesions with intense homogeneous contrast enhancement (primarily the acoustic schwannoma list was evaluated). Chronic lacunar infarct area at the level of the right centrum semiovale and Gamma Knife Radiosurgery was done but the chronic headaches still continuous with palpitations then Echocardiography suggested left atrial myxoma with freely moving with diastolic and prolapse into the left ventricle successful removal by cardiac surgery.

Abstract

The primary cardiac tumors are extremely rare and atrial myxomas are representing approximately 50% of all cardiac tumors, left atrial myxomas are the most common, the symptoms are many included being migraines, dyspnea, and chest pain. In this report, we present a 45-year-old male presented with chronic headaches with aura was triggered by physical exertion. Taking Ibuprofen 600 mg three times daily provided relief to the patient. Braim MRI showing extension from the right pontocerebellar sibling to the internal acoustic canal 16.5x8 mm sized mass lesions with intense homogeneous contrast enhancement (primarily the acoustic schwannoma list was evaluated). Chronic lacunar infarct area at the level of the right centrum semiovale and Gamma Knife Radiosurgery was done but the chronic headaches still continuous with palpitations then Echocardiography suggested left atrial myxoma with freely moving with diastolic and prolapse into the left ventricle successful removal by cardiac surgery.
