OBJECTIVE To investigate the relation of Fas and Fas ligand (FasL) protein expression with carcinogenesis and metastasis of cardiac carcinoma. METHODS Immunohistochemistry was used to detect Fas and FasL protein expression in 64 cardiac carcinoma tissue samples and 20 normal gastric tissue samples. Relation between FasL and Fas expression, age and gender of gastric cancer patients, and pathol...
Malignant melanoma is the malignancy with the highest propensity for cardiac metastasis. Metastasis to the heart usually occurs in the setting of disseminated disease and is therefore commonly associated with a poor prognosis. We report the case of a 51-year-old woman with a previous history of cutaneous malignant melanoma who presented with a symptomatic, isolated right atrial metastasis attac...
OBJECTIVES To explore the rule of subcarinal lymph node metastasis in thoracic oesophageal cancer and its clinical significance in the radical resection of oesophageal cancer. METHODS We retrospectively analysed 2223 patients with oesophageal cancer who were admitted to Henan Cancer Hospital during 2004-2011 and underwent surgery as the first treatment option. Routine subcarinal lymph node di...
Distant metastasis of primary squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the thyroid gland is rare and, to the best of our knowledge, cardiac metastasis has not been reported to date. A 57-year-old man underwent surgery and adjuvant chemoradiotherapy for stage IVA SCC of the thyroid gland. After 3 months, the patient was admitted to the Kyushu University Hospital (Fukuoka, Japan) with subcutaneous hemato...
Cardiac metastases are more common than primary tumors. Several types of malignant tumors have been reported to metastasize to the heart, mainly lung cancer, but in the setting of esophageal cancer, myocardial metastasis is comparatively rare. We report a case of a cardiac metastasis from esophageal squamous cell carcinoma detected 9 months after surgically curative esophagectomy, which present...
Malignant melanoma has an aggressive biological behaviour and a high rate of cardiac involvement. As shown from post-mortem studies, metastases of melanoma can involve any organ and cardiac metastases are frequent. This report describes a case of widespread malignant melanoma in a patient with clinical presentation of complete atrioventricular (AV) block. Thorax CT and transthoracic echocardiog...
Cardiac metastasis from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) without inferior vena cava (IVC) involvements is extremely rare with few reported cases. Sarcomatoid RCC with rhabdoid feature is a rare pathologic type of RCC having aggressive behavior due to great metastatic potential. Here, we report a case of rapidly growing cardiac metastasis of RCC which brought on right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) ...
We present the case of a 35-year-old patient who was found to be affected by an isolated clinically silent cardiac metastasis despite a negative CT follow-up at one year from abdominal surgery for colorectal cancer. CT/PET and tumor marker GICA were fundamental in suggesting the diagnosis, which was then confirmed by cardiac magnetic resonance and surgical biopsy. This is a very rare modality o...
although involvement of the heart by malignant lymphoma is relatively common, it is unusual to be detected premortem. we report a case of hodgkin's lymphoma who presented with systemic signs and symptoms including abdominal distension, weakness, pallor, chills and fever, hepatosplenomegaly and generalized lymphadenopathy as well as signs of heart failure. echocardiography revealed lucent myocar...
Cardiac metastasis of malignant phyllodes tumor is very rare. We herein report a rare case that developed cardiac metastasis from malignant phyllodes tumor. A 38-year-old woman underwent lumpectomy, and the final pathological findings showed the 5-cm malignant phyllodes tumor partially containing 1 cm of squamous cell carcinoma. Four months after the first surgery, a local recurrence of maligna...
