    Author: Lund B.
    Journal: Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand; 1985; 64(5):443-5. PubMed ID: 4061062.
    Abstract:
    The incidence of all categories of metastatic cancer to the heart is rising, as antineoplastic treatment results in longer survival. Malignant pericardial effusion in ovarian carcinoma has only been described at autopsy. In this report two cases of this condition diagnosed in vivo are presented, together with a review of the diagnosis and treatment of this complication of neoplastic disease.
