Papillary fibroelastoma of the aortic valve.
In 67-year-old woman without any cardiac or neurologic symptoms, a transesophageal echocardiogram showed a rounded mass attached to the non-coronary cusp of the aortic valve (Video 1). We excised the tumor with preservation of the valve (Fig. 1). Gross examination (Fig. 2) and light microscopy confirmed the diagnosis of papillary fibroelastoma. Fig. 1. Intraoperative gross appearance of the pap...
متن کاملNative Aortic Valve Thrombosis Resembling Papillary Fibroelastoma
The differential diagnosis of cardiac mass is important in determining the therapeutic plan and avoiding unnecessary surgical intervention. Non-invasive imaging methods would be useful in the diagnosis of suspected cardiac mass, because they may provide earlier diagnosis and more accurate assessment of cardiac mass. Native aortic valve thrombosis is a rare disorder and difficult to differentiat...
متن کاملValve Sparing Surgery for Papillary Fibroelastoma of the Aortic Valve
Cardiac papillary fibroelastoma (CPF) is a rare benign tumor that involves the heart valves and may cause thromboembolism or arrhythmia. The case is presented of an asymptomatic, 60-year-old woman in whom a fibroelastoma was localized on the ventricular aspect of the non-coronary leaflet of the aortic valve. The patient had only palpitation of the heart, and the tumor was accidentally found dur...
متن کاملMultimodality Imaging of a Giant Aortic Valve Papillary Fibroelastoma
Papillary fibroelastomas (PFEs) are benign cardiac tumors arising from endocardium. They are commonly found on valvular surfaces and average 1.0-1.5 cm in size. Though often asymptomatic, PFEs can lead to potentially severe complications, primarily due to their embolic potential. Surgical resection is recommended for all symptomatic or large PFEs. We report the case of a patient presenting with...
متن کاملQuadricuspid aortic valve with aortic regurgitation.
A 51-year-old man presented to the hospital with symptoms suggestive of an embolic stroke, including slurred speech. The patient’s history included mild aortic regurgitation, which was detected by means of transthoracic echocardiography 3 months before presentation. Transesophageal echocardiographic findings confirmed mild aortic regurgitation (panel A) and revealed a quadricuspid aortic valve ...
