We report a case of a 29-year-old female in her last trimester of pregnancy who presented with symptoms of paroxysmal nocturnal dyspnea and positional presyncope. Her echocardiogram revealed a huge left atrial myxoma with prolapse and obstruction to the mitral valve. She underwent an emergency Caesarian section followed by successful surgical resection of the left atrial myxoma. The neonate and the mother were discharged in stable condition.
