Abstract | BACKGROUND: CASE PRESENTATION: In this report, we present a 38-year-old woman with occasional dizziness and headache diagnosed as multiple cerebral fusiform aneurysms, in whom transthoracic echocardiography revealed a mass attached to the interatrial septum in the left atrium. Myxoma resection was performed in fast track cardiac surgery pathway without neurological complications, and no intervention was carried out on the cerebral aneurysms. She was discharged home 6 days after the procedure for followed-up. Furthermore, we reviewed and analyzed the literature in the PubMed and Google Scholar databases in order to conclude the optimal treatment in such cases. CONCLUSIONS:
