You can still have a brain attack after having a heart mucinous tumor removed.
The removal of a cardiac mucinous tumor does not mean that a brain attack will not occur again. This is due to the fact that cardiac mucinous tumor is a kind of tumor that is very easy to recur, and it is also easy to be dislodged. If the mucinous tumor is not cleanly removed during the surgery or recurs after the surgery, some of the dislodged mucinous tumor’s tissues or residues can enter the blood circulation, which can lead to the embolism of blood vessels in the brain.
Besides, cerebral infarction itself can be caused by many factors, and embolization by dislodged embolus is only one of them. Cerebral atherosclerosis, occlusion of cerebral artery caused by high blood pressure and diabetes mellitus can also cause cerebral infarction.
Therefore, it is recommended to consult a doctor and receive standardized diagnosis and treatment when necessary.
