Key Result

Cardiac fibroblastoma may present as NSTEMI, highlighting the need for thorough imaging review in cases of MINOCA.

Key Points

  • To showcase a rare instance of cardiac fibroblastoma leading to NSTEMI and its diagnostic challenges.
  • Detailed imaging review conducted on suspected MINOCA cases.
  • Identification of cardiac tumors during evaluation of NSTEMI.
  • Case reporting of observed outcomes related to cardiac fibroblastoma.
  • Cardiac fibroblastoma identified as an unusual factor in NSTEMI cases.
  • Improved awareness of diverse cardiac tumors related to coronary embolization.
  • Emphasized need for comprehensive imaging in MINOCA situations.

Structured PICO

P
Population
1 patient presenting with NSTEMI/MINOCA found to have a cardiac fibroblastoma

This case expands the spectrum of cardiac tumors implicated in coronary embolization and highlights the importance of thorough imaging in MINOCA.

Abstract

This case highlights the importance of thorough imaging review in MINOCA and expands the spectrum of cardiac tumors implicated in coronary embolization. This is to our knowledge one of the first reports of a cardiac fibroblastoma.
