Neurologic complications of cardiac tumors
2014, Handbook of Clinical NeurologyCitation Excerpt :Ventricular or atrial tumor involvement from endocardial implantation, or extension into the chamber from myocardial rests can result in tumor thrombosis yielding embolic material (Hanfling, 1960). Tumor cells may be intermixed within the thrombus (Hanfling, 1960), so that pathologic evaluation of material from a systemic vascular thrombectomy is a diagnostic necessity (Harvey, 1968; Yufe et al., 1976). A patient presenting with isolated or recurrent central embolic phenomena, evanescent neurologic symptoms, syncope or convulsive syncope, arrhythmia or other features of the clinical triad should have a complete cardiovascular examination.
Image modalities to assess cardiac tumors: Echocardiography, multidetector CT, and MR imaging
2013, Journal of Cardiology CasesObstruction of right ventricular outflow tract by extended cardiac metastasis from esophageal cancer
2002, Journal of the American Society of EchocardiographyCitation Excerpt :Metastatic cardiac tumors have different symptoms according to the anatomic regions: invasion of pericardium causes pericardial effusion or pericardial tamponade; invasion of cardiac muscle may cause arrhythmia and conduction disturbance; and wide invasion may cause heart failure. Invasion of endocardium or inside the cardiac may cause valvulitis and flow disturbance, which eventually lead to systemic thrombosis or pulmonary embolism.9 Thus, when a patient with history of cancer suddenly has cardiovascular diseases develop, metastasis to the heart must be considered during examination.
