Surgery
Papillary Fibroelastoma
- Surgery is the mainstay of therapy for papillary fibroelastoma.
- Surgical excision is generally recommended among patients with papillary fibroelastoma (for symptomatic relief).
- A minimally invasive approach may be possible if the tumor involves the aortic valveor right atrium.[1]
- In the case of aortic valve involvement, excision of the tumor is often valve-sparing, meaning that replacement of the valve with a prosthetic valve is not necessary. Repair of the native valve with a pericardial patch has been described.[2]
