Hepatocellular carcinoma usually metastasizes to regional lymph nodes, lung, and bones but can rarely invade the inferior vena cava with intravascular extension to the right atrium. We present the case of a 75-year-old man who was admitted for generalized oedema and was found to have advanced HCC with invasion of the inferior vena cava and endovascular extension to the right atrium. In contrast to the great majority of hepatocellular carcinoma, which usually develops on the basis of liver cirrhosis due to identifiable risk factors, none of those factors were present in our patient.

Tumor thrombus infiltration of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) into the inferior vena cava and right atrium is rare and is associated with a poor prognosis due to the critical location of the tumor and the limited efficiency of the available treatment strategies. In this study, we report the case of a patient with advanced HCC and tumor thrombus in the inferior vena cava and right atrium who demonstrated complete response with mass retraction upon Yttrium-90 trans-arterial radioembolization (90Y- TARE) therapy. Throughout the 16 months follow-ups after the radioembolization, the patient was free of any complications, revealing no occurrence of radiation-induced pneumonitis or tumor recurrence.

Abstract Funding Acknowledgements governmental grants Uterine leiomyoma is a commom disease in women, however, intravenous leiomyomatosis of uterine origin extending via inferior vena cava into the right side of the heart,known as intracardiac leiomyomatosis is a rare condition (3%). In 1907, Durk reported the first case of intracardiac extension. The patient was a Woman, 35 years old, admitted to our emergency department for an intracardiac mass. She had shortness of breath,fatigue and chest pain. The transthoracic two dimensional echocardiography showed an echogenic oval mass mobile in right atrium and projected through right ventricle in diastole. This mass was observed to extend from inferior vena cava to the right atrium. The echotransesophageal three dimensional showed a large mobile mass that extended from inferior vena cava to the right atrium. A Computer tomographic (CT) scan showed a hypodense multilobulated mass in the pelvis, which had invaded the inferior vena cava and right atrium. The patient underwent a two stages surgery. In first stage (transatrial tumor resection). The operation was performed normal temperature with establisment of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Subsequently, the pathological report was confirmed uterin smooth muscle origin. The second stage surgery ( total histerectomy) was done four weeks later for removing lobulated mass uterin with dimensions 20x15x7.5cm with confirmed histopathological of leiomyoma. Because of it is nonspecific clinical presentation and rarity, an intracardiac Leiomyomatosis continues to be a misdiagnosed as either thrombus or myxoma. The cardiac imaging techniques like a transthoracic echocardiography 2d and transesophageal echocardiography 3d have been used to define the presence, extension of tumor as appearance of the mass and involvement of adjacent structures.

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GISTs) are mesenchymal tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. The major cause of GIST is the presence of an abnormal form of tyrosine protein kinase (KIT) protein also known as CD117, which causes uncontrollable growth of the gastrointestinal cells. Most studies report incidences between 10 and 15 cases of GISTs per million. Metastases to the liver and peritoneum are the most frequent. We report a case of advanced GIST with a liver metastasis infiltrating the inferior vena cava (IVC) and extending to the right atrium in the form of a large, floating, isolated intracardiac liver metastasis with diastolic prolapsing through the tricuspid valve. This is a very rare manifestation. One week after heart surgery and removal of a 5×6 cm tumor mass from the right atrium and the IVC, echocardiography depicted an early recurrence.

Adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC) is a rare malignancy with poor prognosis. Surgery is the only curative therapy available and overall 5-year survival for patients who undergo a complete resection is 32% to 48%. They are known to produce intravascular invasion and into the inferior vena cava (IVC) and in rare cases they may reach the right atrium. We report a case of functioning ACC extending into the inferior vena cava and right atrium in a female with Cushing's syndrome.
