Core Tip	Left ventricular myxoma (LVM) after surgical resection of left atrial myxoma is very rare. Etiologies for recurrent LVM after left atrial myxoma resection are incomplete surgical resection, metastasis, totipotent multicentricity and missed. Here we are describing a case that was probably a metastatic LVM as it is uncommon statistically for it to be a recurrent myxoma in the left ventricle after complete resection from left atrium. If there is a progression of the cerebral hemorrhagic lesions it would confirm our diagnosis of the metastatic process.
