Solitary Cardiac
Metastasis from Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Cervix Ziembová J., Schildberger J., Dvořák R., Pohanka I., Semrád, B. |
|
Summary: Authors report the case of 37 years old women after radiotherapy for spinocelular cervical carci-
noma which was presented by a solitary metastasis in the right ventricle causing right ventricle
output tract obstruction. Cardiosurgical intervention as well as chemotherapy were not indicated
for the great extension of cardiac involvement. The patient died from a massive pulmonary embo-
lism. Echocardiography, although limited by the discrimination ability, seems to be the best
method for the cardiac metastasis detection.
