Introduction:
Ischaemic stroke results from a sudden interruption of cerebral blood flow, often caused by thrombosis, embolism or hypoperfusion. Rarely, cardiac tumours are the cause of an embolic event. We report on an 80-year-old woman with a cerebral stroke. Successful thrombectomy revealed a histopathologically confirmed papillary fibroelastoma as the embolic source. Although it was not detectable on initial echocardiography, the tumour was discovered by transesophageal echocardiography. This case emphasises the importance of considering primary cardiac tumours as potential sources of emboli in ischaemic stroke. Keywords.

Imagine the sound is reflected back to the ears. Assuming that the source is very close to the human, the difference between hearing the two sounds—the emitted sound and the reflected sound—may be more than the minimum time for perceiving distinct sounds. If this is the case,...
