Lambl's excrescences were first described in 1856 by a Bohemian physician, Vilém Dušan Lambl, and since then have gained widespread attention and controversy within the medical literature. Despite numerous case reports and observational studies, consensus on the significance and management of Lambl's excrescences remains sparse. We describe the case of a 48-year-old male who presented with recurrent embolic strokes. No underlying paroxysmal arrhythmia or inter-atrial shunt was identified, and the only pathological finding was a 1-mm aortic valve strand. We managed this patient successfully using a novel oral anticoagulant.
