A case of asymptomatic aortic valve fibroelastoma was diagnosed by transthoracic and transesophageal echocardiography in a 77-year-old man. A 2nd tumor was found at surgery. Both fibroelastomas were removed surgically without aortic valve replacement. During surgical excision of a cardiac fibroelastoma, the entire area surrounding the lesion should be inspected carefully for additional lesions. Such lesions can be missed on echocardiographic evaluation.
一名77岁男性经胸和经食管超声心动图诊断为无症状性主动脉瓣纤维弹性瘤。手术中发现了第二个肿瘤。两个纤维弹性瘤均通过手术切除,未进行主动脉瓣置换。在手术切除心脏纤维弹性瘤时,应仔细检查病变周围的整个区域是否存在其他病变。此类病变在超声心动图评估中可能会被遗漏。
