Abstract

Papillary fibroelastomas are very rare cardiac tumours that can present with embolization of coronary and peripheral arteries and sudden death. The diagnosis can be made by two-dimensional or transoesophageal echocardiography. A 53-year-old man with an aortic valve papillary fibroelastoma who presented with several transient ischaemic attacks is reported.
