The preferred treatment is surgical resection, but antiarrhythmic medications or heart transplantation have also been used previously. The cardiac imaging, particularly MRI, can be useful to help delineate between primary cardiac tumors, and surgical factors such as the extent\/size of the fibroma, involvement of the coronary arteries or mitral apparatus and amount of residual myocardium influence whether surgical resection is feasible.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Case presentation<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 42-year-old male presented with a wide-complex tachycardia, unresponsive to amiodarone.
