Cardiac myxomas of giant size are rare. Their clinical presentation depends on the rapidity of growth of the mass and pressure ef-fects which it produces. Echocardiography alone is sufficient in most cases for initial diagnosis and to prepare for surgical remov-al. Modern imaging is warranted in cases with atypical features like huge size or non-visibility of stalk or signs of infiltration. We present one such case of a giant left atrial myxoma which was evaluated with MRI in this report
