Totally endoscopic non-robotic excision of aortic valve fibroelastoma: a case report

BACKGROUND: Papillary fibroelastomas (PFEs) are a rare subtype of benign primary cardiac tumours, which are most commonly found on the aortic valve. Although median sternotomy is still used frequently there has been different attempts to remove the aortic valve PFEs minimally invasively using roboti...

Sumario:BACKGROUND: Papillary fibroelastomas (PFEs) are a rare subtype of benign primary cardiac tumours, which are most commonly found on the aortic valve. Although median sternotomy is still used frequently there has been different attempts to remove the aortic valve PFEs minimally invasively using robotic and Mini sternotomy approach. CASE PRESENTATION: We report herein a case of totally endoscopic non robotic removal of PFE of aortic valve. CONCLUSIONS: The encouraging intra and post-operative outcomes and fast recovery using totally endoscopic approach for removal of PFE shows the potential benefits of this technique.
