Infected cardiac myxoma is very fragile, and has a potential to lead to catastrophic disorder with systemic bacteremia, systemic mycotic embolism, and disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC).<\/jats:p>\n          <jats:p>We present here the successful surgical treatment of a case of infected left atrial myxoma with septic shock, DIC and cerebral infarction without hemorrahage. Collective review of 58 reported cases with infected cardiac myxoma revealed that surgical treatment for it were still challenging and its result was poor. Until date, only one successful surgical treatment for a case complicated by DIC and cerebral infarctions has been reported, and our report describes second such case of successful resection. Even though this report is limited to a case, only aggressive and prompt surgical intervention could relieve the intractable conditions in such a patient with extremely high risk.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1186\/1749-8090-6-68","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,12]],"date-time":"2011-05-12T19:17:10Z","timestamp":1305227830000},"update-policy":"http:\/\/dx.doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["Successful surgical resection of infected left atrial myxoma in a case complicated with disseminated intravascular coagulation and multiple cerebral infarctions: case report"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"6","author":[{"given":"Daisuke","family":"Yoshioka","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Toshiki","family":"Takahashi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Toru","family":"Ishizaka","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Takuya","family":"Higuchi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"429_CR1","first-page":"256","volume":"15","author":"S Leone","year":"2007","unstructured":"Leone S, dell'aquila G, Giglio S, Magliocca M, Maio P, Nigro FS, Pacifico P, De Chiara G, Acone N: Infected atrial myxoma: case report and literature review.
