چکیده انگلیسی
An 89-year-old woman with chronic atrial fibrillation, hypertension, chronic heart failure, and dementia was admitted to our hospital due to multiple small cerebral and cerebellar infarctions. Transthoracic echocardiogram revealed a floating calcified mass lesion arising from the endocardium of the posterior portion of the mitral annulus with mitral annular calcification. Furthermore, the mass had a heterogeneity of the echogenicity. The mass was diagnosed as a calcified amorphous tumor based on specific echocardiographic features. Serial echocardiograms showed shrinkage and disappearance of the mass, and magnetic resonance image revealed new infarction in the left occipital lobe. Embolization of the mass appeared to cause systemic embolism.
