Left intra-ventricular Metastasis from Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Bronchus-Case Report

Abstract

Lung cancer is one of the common causes for cardiac metastasis, followed by mesothelioma, melanoma, renal cell carcinoma and colorectal cancers. High index of suspicion and sound clinical Echocardiography skills is the key in detection of these metastases. Echocardiography and MRI are helpful in detection of neoplastic cardiac disease in addition to CT scan. Early detection may result in successful outcome.
