  • Title: Surgical resection of a giant cardiac fibroma.
    Author: Stamp NL, Larbalestier RI.
    Journal: Asian Cardiovasc Thorac Ann; 2016 May; 24(4):378-81. PubMed ID: 25690433.
    Abstract:
    A 42-year-old woman presented to a regional hospital emergency room with palpitations and was found to be in ventricular tachycardia. Chest radiography demonstrated a massively enlarged cardiac silhouette. Echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a mass within the left ventricular free wall, consistent with a cardiac fibroma. The patient proceeded to have surgical resection of the mass. Left ventricular function was preserved postoperatively.
