Intracardiac papillary fibroelastoma: an occult cause of embolic neurologic deficit.

Description

McFadden PM, Lacy JR., Ann Thorac Surg. 43(6):667-9., 1987 Jun 01

Investigators

Joseph R. Lacy, M.D.

Abstract

We report the case of a young woman with a transient ischemic attack secondary to a rare intracardiac tumor, a papillary fibroelastoma.

The tumor was identified by two-dimensional echocardiography and was treated surgically.

The intracardiac papillary fibroelastoma as an uncommon source of occult cerebral emboli is discussed.
