Popis: Abstract Cardiac myxomas are the most common primary cardiac tumours. The overall prevalence is very low and up to 25% present asymptomatically. In Asia, the data on myxomas is limited. Therefore, we aimed to outline a multi-ethnic Asian population of cardiac myxoma patients. We included all index echocardiographic diagnoses of myxoma at a tertiary cardiovascular referral centre from May 2004 to April 2021. A retrospective review of all patients’ medical records was conducted. Data including patient characteristics, clinical presentation, imaging, treatment, and outcomes were collected and analysed. A total of 64 patients (mean age 66.4 years old, male 61%) were diagnosed with cardiac myxoma. The incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) was 10 (16.1%) and 10-year mortality was 11 (17.2%). The proportion of asymptomatic patients (30.2%) increased from 15.4% before 2012 to 35.3% after 2012. Pre-existing chronic kidney disease and ischaemic heart disease were independently associated with increased risk of mortality and MACE (p-values
