We experienced a case of papillary fibroelastoma of the left ventricular outflow tract in a patient with severe valvular heart disease that was detected only by transesophageal echocardiography. Preoperative detection of this lesion altered the surgical procedure to include resection of the mass through the aortic valve annulus along with repair/replacement of the valves. The literature documents sufficient morbidity/mortality to support excision of these lesions regardless of symptoms or location.
