  • Title: [A rare form of heart metastasis: hypernephroma. Successful surgical treatment].
    Author: Minale C, Ulbricht LJ, Höler H, Köbberling J, Cramer BM, Schubert GE.
    Journal: Z Kardiol; 1995 Aug; 84(8):643-7. PubMed ID: 7571771.
    Abstract:
    An unusual cardiac metastasis, occurring in a 63-year-old man 19 years after nephrectomy because of renal cell carcinoma, is reported. The tumor extended from the right ventricle apex to the mid-portion of the interventricular septum. A complete excision could be achieved. To our knowledge, this is the third case of a renal cell carcinoma metastasis to the right ventricle which could be detected during a patient's lifetime and treated surgically. A review of the literature is also reported.
