==Differential Diagnosis==
==Differentiating Myxoma from other Diseases==
The [[differential diagnosis]] include other cardiac tumors such as [[lipoma]]s and [[rhabdomyoma]]s.  These other tumors of the heart are typically not pedunculated, however, and are more likely to infiltrate the muscle of the heart.

The [[differential diagnosis]] include other cardiac tumors such as:
*[[lipoma]]
