Myxomas are the most common primary tumor affecting the heart. Infection of these tumors is rare and sometimes its clinical presentation is indistinguishable from an uninfected myxoma. The case of a 49-year-old female patient with a persistent fever of probable bacterial origin, which leads to antibiotic treatment, is reported. It was decided to perform a transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography to reach a diagnosis. Surgery was performed, the tumor was resected (the result of the biopsy showed it was an atrial myxoma) and the subsequent clinical course was uneventful.El mixoma es el tumor primario más frecuente que afecta al corazón.
