title: [Cardiac papillary fibroelastoma on the Chiari's network of a 3-month-old baby; report of a case].
abstract: A 3-month-old boy was transferred to our hospital because of a cardiac tumor in the right heart, which had been prenatally diagnosed by fetal echocardiography. During the operation, the tumor was found on the Chiari's network in the right atrium. The tumor was excised and the ventricular septal defect was repaired. Postoperative histological examination revealed that the tumor was a papillary fibroelastoma. He was transferred to a pediatric unit for postoperative care.
