Cardiac papillary fibroelastomas: Unveiling a rare right atrial presentation with surgical insights—A case report and review of the literature
Cardiac papillary fibroelastomas (CPF) are rare, benign tumors with thromboembolic potential. We present a 40-year-old male with a right atrial CPF, referred with acute chest pain. Advanced imaging and surgical excision with tricuspid valve repair were crucial, emphasizing the need for early detection and intervention in symptomatic and asymptomatic cases.
