Abstract

Papillary fibroelastoma attached to the free margin of right coronary cusp of the aortic vlave was found incidentally during the work-up of a 51-year-old woman, who was presented with palpitation and dyspnea. During the operation, the tumor mass was excised without leaving defect on the aortic valve leaflet.
