摘要
A papillary fibroelastoma, causing amaurosis fugax and paresis of the right arm, was detected by echocardiography as a free floating mass in the left-ventricular outflow tract. Based on the exact localization of the tumor by intraoperative transespphageal echocardiography the initial indication for ventriculotomy was disregarded and an atraumatic transvalvular approach was chosen.
