Multimodality Imaging Approach for a Transient Ischemic Stroke as a First Manifestation of Papillary Fibroelastoma
Take home messages 1. Despite being considered a benign tumor, the high reported incidence of embolic events increasingly warrants surgical resection, regardless of size, especially in patients with a history of cardiovascular risk factors. 2. Multimodal imaging evaluation plays a crucial role in distinguishing intracardiac masses, relying on the physician's ability to discern characteristic findings. Proper assessment leads to appropriate management decisions based on suggestive findings.
