Figure 1

A - Transesophageal echocardiography at 120°. Note the structure (white arrow) attached to the aortic valve. B. Transesophageal echocardiography at 45°. Note the same structure attached to the right coronary cusp. C. Transesophageal echocardiography at 50°. Note the presence of a patent foramen ovale (PFO, white arrow). D. Acquisition at the same level as C after the administration of agitated saline and performance of the Valsalva maneuver. Note the crossing of air bubbles from the left atrium to the right atrium (white arrow).

Figure 2

Coronary computed tomography angiography with a retrospective current modulated protocol. A, B, and C. 1.5 mm volumetric reconstructions. Note the cardiac tumor attached to the right coronary cups measuring 8 x 8 x 5 mm. D, E, and F. 0.6 mm curved radial multi planar reconstruction of the left descending coronary artery, left circumflex coronary artery, and right coronary artery, respectively.

Histopathological evaluation of the cardiac tumor being concordant with the diagnosis of fibroma, as the elastin stain did not find clearly identifiable intratumoral elastin fibers. A. Hematoxylin and eosin stain. B. Elastic Van Gieson stain.
