Transesophageal echocardiography for detection of a papillary fibroelastoma of the aortic valve.
Papillary fibroelastoma (PF) is a benign cardiac tumor, typically attached to the cardiac valves. It is usually found incidentally at autopsy or surgery. It is rarely symptomatic, but can cause myocardial infarction, cerebral infarction and systemic embolism, even in young patients, and sometimes results in sudden death. We report on a case of a PF attached to the nodulus arantii of the left co...
متن کاملAortic valve papillary fibroelastoma. A diagnosis by transthoracic echocardiography.
Cardiac papillary fibroelastomas are unusual, frond-like growths typically found on cardiac valves, diagnosed incidentally on autopsy or cardiac surgery, but rarely during life. We report a rare case of an aortic valve papillary fibroelastoma detected by transthoracic echocardiography and confirmed by histologic study.
متن کاملPulmonary valve papillary fibroelastoma diagnosed by echocardiography: a case report.
Papillary fibroelastomas (PFEs) are rare cardiac valve tumours with reported incidence of <0.03% according to autopsy studies. Among them, pulmonary valve PFEs are extremely rare. With wider use of echocardiography, they are being increasingly recognized premortem. We describe a case of a 32-year-old Caucasian woman with PFE of pulmonic valve diagnosed by echocardiography. The patient underwent...
متن کاملPapillary fibroelastoma of the root of the left atrial appendage found incidentally by transesophageal echocardiography during cardiac surgery.
A 76-year-old man was scheduled for coronary artery bypass graft surgery and mitral annuloplasty using cardiopulmonary bypass. His medical history included a right subarachnoid hemorrhage, angina pectoris, myocardial infarction 23 yr earlier, and percutaneous coronary intervention. Because of progressive dyspnea, he underwent cardiac catheterization that revealed severe three-vessel coronary ar...
متن کاملSurgical Resection of Mitral Valve Papillary Fibroelastoma: A Robot-Assisted, Minimally Invasive Approach with Three-Dimensional Transesophageal Echocardiography Imaging
Papillary fibroelastomas (PFEs) are benign tumors of the endocardium that most frequently affect cardiac valves and typically present with embolic symptoms such as stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). Surgical excision is usually recommended for left-sided tumors and is associated with excellent long-term outcomes. The use of a robot-assisted, minimally invasive surgical approach for mana...
