We report a tricuspid valve papillary fibroelastoma initially detected by
transthoracic two-dimensional echocardiography and subsequently
characterized by transesophageal two-dimensional echocardiography. The mass
was excised during open heart operation, and the diagnosis was verified
grossly and histopathologically. Transesophageal echocardiography usually
provides images far superior to those from transthoracic echocardiography
and may be a useful adjunct for intraoperative localization of intracardiac
tumors for excision.
