  • Title: Resection of Metastatic Hepatocellular Carcinoma in the Ventricular Septum Causing Left Ventricular Outflow Tract Obstruction.
    Author: Gray WH, Patel R, Baker CJ, Starnes VA, Bowdish ME.
    Journal: Ann Thorac Surg; 2018 Mar; 105(3):e107-e108. PubMed ID: 29455819.
    Abstract:
    Isolated cardiac involvement of recurrent metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is extremely rare. We report a patient with left ventricular outflow tract (LVOT) obstruction due to isolated recurrent HCC involving the interventricular septum (IVS). A ventriculotomy with resection of the tumor and patch repair of the IVS was performed with successful relief of LVOT obstruction. The patient was discharged home 6 days later symptom-free.
