Papillary Fibroelastoma

Preferred Label : Papillary Fibroelastoma;

NCIt synonyms : Fibroelastic Papilloma; Giant Lambl Excrescence;

NCIt definition : A rare benign neoplasm of the endocardium. The vast majority of cases arise in the heart valves. Histopathologic examination reveals a papilloma lined by endothelial cells with a central avascular core which contains fibroblasts and elastic fibers. Patients may be asymptomatic or present with ischemic or embolic events.;

Neoplastic status : Benign;
