Papillary fibroelastomas are rare benign tumors of cardiac origin. In this case report, we present an asymptomatic 64-year-old female patient with a large left ventricular outflow tract papillary fibroelastoma treated surgically. We would like to emphasize the management of atypical located and clinically asymptomatic papillary fibroelastoma.
