Cardiac papillary fibroelastoma: A comprehensive analysis of 725 cases
2003, American Heart JournalCitation Excerpt :Data were extracted from all case reports and case series, and emphasis was placed to provide a comprehensive overview of the subject. Seven hundred and twenty-five cases of CPF were identified.3–75,76–150,151–217 All cases were examined for demographics, clinical characteristics, pathological findings, and treatment of CPF.
Transesophageal echocardiographic (TEE) evaluation of intracardiac and pericardial masses
2000, Cardiology ClinicsCitation Excerpt :In most cases, patients with left-sided myxomas should be referred for early surgery, especially when the patient has presented with embolic events, or the tumor has a highly mobile frondlike appearance, which suggests high embolic potential. These tumors are small pedunculated tumors that usually are 1 cm smaller in diameter than that which can occur anywhere in the heart but most often are attached to cardiac valves.3,45,57 They have a central core with multiple fronds and can embolize.18,21,26,65
