We report a case of a 59-year-old woman with recurrent cerebrovascular insults caused by a papillary fibroelastoma of the aortic valve. Primary cardiac tumors are rare. Papillary fibroelastoma (PFE) is the most common valvular tumor and the second cardiac benign tumor after myxoma. The clinical presentation of PFE varies from asymptomatic to severe embolic complications. The tumor was surgically removed to avoid new embolic events.
