Abstract Atrial myxoma is a rare condition. Cardiac failure after left breast cancer treatment is not usually attributed to such pathology. We describe the case of a 69 year-old female who presented two sub-obstructive left atrium myxomas one year after the end of left breast cancer treatment. Acute cardiac failure, without history of prior cardiovascular disease, could have resolved from the combination of various factors involving myxomas and complications of radiotherapy and chemotherapy. The absence of atrial images on the computerised tomography and ultrasonography performed before cancer treatment question the accuracy of diagnosis imaging as well as the actual rate of growth of cardiac myxoma
