  Fig. 1 Images of masses. (A) Transthoracic echocardiography showed a multi-lobulated shaped mass (white asterisk) attached to the anterior leaflet of the mitral valve on the left ventricular side. (B) Cardiac computed tomography showed that the mass (white asterisk) exhibited enhancement on early post-contrast image. (C) Another small mass (yellow asterisk) was observed on the left atrial wall at the opening of pulmonary vein.LV = left ventricle, LA = left atrium, PV = pulmonary vein.

  Fig. 3 Intra-op findings. (A) Multi-lobulated masses were noted. (B) Resected masses.
