    Abstract Background: Infective endocarditis remains a serious condition. Left ventricular pseudoaneurysm may complicate the clinical course of infective endocarditis or occur postoperatively.
    Case presentation: We describe a case of a pseudoaneurysm of the left ventricular lateral wall which developed one month following cardiac surgery of active endocarditis affecting aortic and mitral valves. The diagnosis was established by transthoracic echocardiography and computed tomography angiography of the chest. Urgent cardiac surgery is performed with excision of the pseudoaneurysm and direct closure of the defect. The patient had a complete recovery and was discharged on the twelfth postoperative day.
    Conclusions: Left ventricular pseudoaneurysms are rare but potentially fatal. The symptoms revealing such complications are very diverse. Surgical treatment can be offered to younger patients.

    Abstract Introduction and importance: Right atrial myxoma is rarely associated with Budd-Chiari syndrome (BCS). In this paper, we present a case of a young patient with a giant right atrial myxoma complicated by the development of BCS.
    Case presentation: A 26-year-old female presented to the emergency room with persistent abdominal pain, ascites, lower limb edema, and an acute episode of dyspnea. Abdominal computed tomography revealed a lesion in the right cardiac cavity that resembled an intracardiac thrombus. Transthoracic echocardiography showed a large heterogeneous mass in the right atrium protruding into the right ventricle and a large thrombus interfering with inferior vena cava flow. The patient underwent cardiac surgery to remove the atrial mass, and histopathologic examinations confirmed the diagnosis of atrial myxoma.
    Clinical discussion: The right atrial myxoma is relatively rare, especially the giant ones. Rarely have intracardiac tumors such as giant right atrial myxoma been identified as a risk factor for the onset of BCS.
    Conclusion: In the differential diagnosis of BCS, right atrial tumors, including myxomas, should be considered, especially when other explanations are absent.

    Abstract Introduction and importance: Giant left atrium (GLA) is a rare condition often associated with rheumatic heart disease and can lead to cardiac and extracardiac complications. In this case report, the authors present a rare case of GLA with extracardiac complications, highlighting the importance of prompt diagnosis and management.
    Case presentation: A 54-year-old woman with a 25-year history of mitral stenosis caused by rheumatic heart disease presented with symptoms of dyspnea, orthopnea, and palpitations. Diagnostic tests revealed an enlarged left atrium, pleural effusion, severe pulmonary hypertension, and tricuspid regurgitation. The patient was treated with diuretics and ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) inhibitors and is currently on a medication regimen with regular follow-up appointments.
    Clinical discussion: GLA can cause cardiac and extracardiac complications, and conservative treatment and surgery are both involved in the management plan. The reduction of left atrial size by surgery may eliminate symptoms, reduce postoperative complications, and increase the probability of regaining sinus rhythm.
    Conclusion: Observational data on managing GLA is limited, and mortality can be high. Cardiovascular surgeons should carefully consider surgical options, and screening and follow-up are essential for early detection and management in patients with long-standing rheumatic heart disease.
