Overview
Cardiac myxoma is a rare disease with a reported prevalence of 0.03% in general population.[1] The incidence of cardiac myxoma is about 1/ 100,000 per year.[2] The majority of patients with cardiac myxoma are diagnosed between 30 to 60 years; children are rarely affected. Females are more commonly affected with cardiac myxoma than men. The female-to-male ratio is approximately 1.8 to 1.[1][3] Cardiac myxomas represent 78% of heart tumors.
Epidemiology and Demographics
Prevalence
- The prevalence of cardiac myxoma is reported as 0.03% in general population.[4]
Incidence
Age
- The mean age of patients at diagnosis is 50 years, most patients are between 30-60 age range.
- Cardiac myxomas are rare in children. However, in the pediatric population cardiac myxomas are more likely to be related with familial forms such as the (Carney complex).[5]
Gender
- Females are more commonly affected with cardiac myxoma than men. The female-to-male ratio is approximately 1.8 to 1.[1]
- There is no established sex predisposition in the Carney complex.[1]
