[Surgery of heart myxoma].
Myxomas are the most common benign tumors of the heart. It is important that an exact diagnosis be made and radical surgical treatment effected. The clinical interest in them increased particularly in 1950 when Goldberg first established a diagnosis of intracardial myxoma by means of angiocardiography, and Grafford (1954) performed a successful operation in extracorporal blood flow. Our first successful operation was carried out in the above Clinic in 1961, and since then in about 4500 open heart operations 10 myxomas were extirpated.
