Secondary Tumours

Cardiac masses include tumours, thrombi, vegetations, calcific lesions, and other very rare conditions. Cardiac tumours include benign tumours and tumour-like lesions, malignant tumours, and pericardial tumours. The estimated prevalence for primary cardiac tumours is 1:2.000 and for secondary tumours 1:100 autopsies. The incidence of cardiac metastases ranges from 2.3% to 18.3% of patients with extra-cardiac malignancies. About 10% of primary cardiac tumours are malignant and 90% benign. The majority of primary benign cardiac tumours are myxomas, followed by papillary fibroelastomas. Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcomas are the most common primary malignant cardiac tumours, followed by angiosarcoma and leiomyosarcoma.

Demographic Features

AbstractCardiac osteosarcoma metastasis is extremely rare and is documented in several case reports in the literature. The behaviour of osteosarcoma metastases is similar to the primary tumour. Thoracic non-enhanced computed tomography (CT) examination is beneficial in the detection of calcific cardiac metastases. In this case report, we describe a 29-year-old woman with cardiac osteosarcoma metastasis after 7 years of follow-up, compare the demographic features with previous cases and discuss the imaging findings.

AbstractPrimary malignant tumors of the heart are rare; the biggest group is sarcomas. Cardiac metastases make up the biggest group of secondary cardiac tumors. We present a rare case of cardiac metastasis (3.1 × 3.2 × 2.8 cm) localized in the right atrium, originating from a large cell neuroendocrine lung carcinoma, with close contact to the tricuspid valve and inferior cava vein.
