Massive Mysteries - 29/08/23

Résumé |
Papillary fibroelastomas are benign masses often originating from the endocardium of the aortic and mitral valves. Rarely, these neoplasms are found in areas of the heart embryonically distinct from the aortic and mitral valves. Diagnosis of a papillary fibroelastoma relies on multimodal imaging as well as histologic assessment. A case series of papillary fibroelastomas in unusual locations is presented, highlighting the role of multimodal imaging techniques in identifying these intra-cardiac masses. Differential diagnoses, imaging characteristics, histopathology, and preferred management strategies for cardiac masses are reviewed. The unique imaging qualities of cardiac masses are discussed.
