Although histologically benign, it can cause severe complications including arrhythmias, heart failure, and even sudden death.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case summary<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We report a 51-year-old female presenting with chest pain and exertional dyspnoea. Transthoracic echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance imaging revealed a large intramyocardial mass at the left ventricular apex. The patient underwent complete surgical resection under cardiopulmonary bypass. Histopathology confirmed a primary cardiac fibroma. The postoperative course was uneventful, and the patient remained well at 6-month follow-up without recurrence.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Surgical resection is the treatment of choice for primary cardiac fibroma, preventing life-threatening arrhythmias and haemodynamic compromise.
