Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: Although the differential diagnosis for cardiac masses is broad and includes both benign and malignant primary cardiac tumors, metastases of noncardiac primary malignancies to the heart are an important etiology. We present an unusual case of a rapidly progressive right atrial mass caused by metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma.
