Successful Removal of Papillary Endocardial Fibroma

: We report a case of systemic embolization secondary to a small papillary endocardial fibroma, a rare cardiac tumor. It was attached to a chords of the mitral valve by a short stalk. The tumor was successfully excised and the mitral valve was preserved. Two-dimensional echocardiography played the major role in the diagnosis of this small endocardial tumor.
