Papillary fibroelastoma: echocardiographic characteristics for diagnosis and pathologic correlation.
OBJECTIVES We sought to determine the clinical and echocardiographic characteristics of papillary fibroelastoma (PFE). BACKGROUND PFE is a rarely encountered cardiac tumor about which relatively little is known. METHODS Institutional records were reviewed for the years 1980 to 1995 for patients with pathologic or echocardiographic diagnosis of PFE. Group 1 included 17 patients with the path...

متن کاملCardiac papillary fibroelastoma: The need for a timely diagnosis
Cardiac papillary fibroelastomas (CPFs) are the second most common primary cardiac tumors and the most common cardiac valvular tumors. Although they are histologically benign and usually asymptomatic, CPFs can lead to serious and life-threatening complications like myocardial infarction, stroke, pulmonary embolus, cardiac arrest etc. CPFs represent a rare entity in clinical medicine and literat...
متن کاملPapillary fibroelastoma of the tricuspid valve: a perioperative diagnosis.
A 75-year old man was hospitalized for tricuspid endocarditis. Despite a well-conducted antibiotic therapy, vegetation was persistent (Fig. 1). Several investigations did not find the aetiology, and a surgical exploration revealed a papillary fibroelastoma (Fig. 2). Total resection (Supplementary Video S1) with tricuspid valvuloplasty (Supplementary Video S2) permitted a curative therapy. This ...
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.
