Cerebral Aneurysms Caused by Atrial Myxoma—A Systematic Review of the Literature
Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
Interesting paper looking at aneurysm development in myxoma patients.
Important topic with well done systematic review.
The paper would further benefit from discussion regarding genetics PMID: 34863053 and role in pediatric patients PMID: 35557982.
If the above concepts addressed and references included, paper could be of interest.

Reviewer 2 Report
I think that the authors make a complete review about cases reported in the literature having multiple myxomas, but it is hard to find a clear conclusion about this work. I think that authors should explain better what their article's contribution to the topic is. I have some comments:
Line 66: please rewrite the sentence
Line 67: are illustrated better than presented to avoid repeating the same word
Line 67: 'type case series' or 'a type case serie' instead of 'a type case series'
