[Papillomatosis of the mitral valve as an unusual cause of myocardial ischemia. Description of a case and review of the literature].

Papilloma is a rare primary heart tumour; only 75 cases have been reported and most were casual findings at autopsy. We describe another case of this tumour in a 9 years girl. The neoformation had produced a picture of angina pectoris, followed by death due to an occluded left coronary orifice.
