[Left ventricular papillary fibroelastoma].
We evaluated the case of a patient with Papillary Fibroelastoma (PFE) that presented embolization to the upper right limb. The patient was submitted to percutaneous embolectomy, with fragment removal. The diagnosis was confirmed by transthoracic echocardiogram and anatomopathological analysis of the fragment. The patient chose to undergo the conservative clinical treatment and the follow-up has...

Papillary fibroelastoma is the most common valvular cardiac tumor. The most common non-valvular site these tumors present is the left ventricle, where they usually manifest as ischemic strokes or myocardial infarction. Although these tumors also have a risk of embolization into the peripheral system, reports of such events are exceedingly rare. A 77 year old female presented to the hospital f...

متن کاملDouble primary left ventricular and aortic valve papillary fibroelastoma.
Papillary fibroelastomas of the heart are relatively rare benign tumors and although they can be symptom free, symptoms such as cerebral ischemia and cardiac infarction can be lethal. It is important to diagnose this tumor using echocardiography, because lethal embolisms can be prevented by surgical resection. Recurrence of this tumor has not been reported and multiple tumors are rare. The pres...

∗ Corresponding author. E-mail address: [email protected] (G.S. Kim). (Figure 1). Because of the potential systemic embolic risk, the patient was referred for complete surgical removal. On operative inspection, the lesion was between the anterior mitral leaflet and primary chordae (Figure 2). A mitral valve repair (28 mm ring annuloplasty, triangular resection of the anterior leaflet and n...
