Abstract

Papillary fibroelastoma is an uncommon cardiac tumor rarely diagnosed during life. Although most are incidental findings at autopsy, a small number of cases have been associated with cardiac symptoms that include angina, embolism and sudden death. We describe a case of papillary fibroelastoma detected angiographically and shown to cause coronary obstruction and myocardial ischemia.
