Incidental finding of a papillary fibroelastoma on the aortic valve in 16 slice multi-detector row computed tomography.
Papillary fibroelastoma (PFE) is a benign, rare, gelatinous tumour derived from the endocardium, primarily the cardiac valves, which is usually diagnosed by high resolution echocardiography. Although rarely clinically symptomatic, PFEs have a potential for coronary ischaemia, systemic embolisation with neurologic symptoms, and sometimes valvar dysfunction. There are reports of coronary occlusio...
متن کاملRadiopathologic correlation of a tricuspid valve papillary fibroelastoma detected in an infant
Papillary fibroelastomas are benign primary cardiac tumors that usually arise from the valve apparatus and are rare in the pediatric population. Involvement of the tricuspid valve is even less common with only a few cases reported in the literature. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging is a valuable examination that aids in differentiating a tumor from a thrombus. We present the case of an 11-mon...
متن کاملCharacterization of cardiac tumors in children by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging: a multicenter experience.
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to report the results of an international multicenter experience of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluation of cardiac tumors in children, each with histology correlation or a diagnosis of tuberous sclerosis, and to determine which characteristics are predictive of tumor type. BACKGROUND Individual centers have relatively little experience with...
متن کاملTissue characterization of a suspected aortic valve fibroelastoma with cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.
Apreviously healthy 29-year-old woman complaining of atypical chest pain was referred to our hospital. No cardiovascular risk factors were present. Resting ECG demonstrated normal sinus rhythm, and an exercise ECG during full workload was inconspicuous. Routine transthoracic echocardiography revealed a small lesion protruding from the aortic side of the aortic valve (Figure 1, Data Supplement M...
متن کاملThe Correlation between Left and Right Ventricular Ejection Fractions in Patients with Ischemic Heart Disease, Documented by Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Introduction: The correlation between right and left ventricular ejection fractions (RVEF and LVEF, respectively) has been studied in only a small number of patients with a marked decrease in RVEF and LVEF. The aim of the present study was to compare LVEF and RVEF in patients with ischemic heart disease. RVEF and LVEF were measured by Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (CMR) imaging. Materials a...
