Left Atrial Mass Invasion from Pulmonary Neoplasm Extension via the Right Upper Pulmonary Vein Presenting as Ipsilateral Stroke
Left atrial invasion by lung cancer via haematogenous pathways is a relatively uncommon but potentially life-threatening event. While several cardiac complications of cardiac involvement have been previously described, the evolution towards cerebral stroke has been rarely reported. In this case report, we describe an atypical case of haematogenous metastatic invasion of the left atrium from pul...
متن کاملPulmonary Metastatic Leiomyosarcoma with Left Atrial Extension via the Pulmonary Vein Manifests as Acute Pulmonary Edema
We report a case who presented to our emergency department with symptoms of congestive heart failure and acute pulmonary edema. The transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated a large tumor that occupied two-thirds of the left atrium and impeded the mitral valve flow. The patient underwent cardiac surgery with removal of the LA tumor that was intraoperatively found extending through the right i...
متن کاملLeiomyosarcoma of Pulmonary Vein Presenting as Left Atrial Mass: An Outline of Management Principles
Leiomyosarcoma of the pulmonary vein is rare and has poor prognosis. Its clinical features are nonspecific and mimic benign conditions. Early diagnosis is challenging. Most cases have been diagnosed only at autopsy or on postoperative histology specimens. Treatment is essentially palliative complete surgical excision. We outline the principles of management with the case of a 39-year-old man wi...
متن کاملA Case of Pulmonary Vein Tumor Presenting as a Left Atrial Mass
Primary cardiac tumors are extremely rare and can originate within the heart or be the result of tumor spread from other sites. We report a female patient with a pulmonary vein tumor extending into the left atrium that had a suspicious primary malignant origin with a sacral metastatic carcinoma. The patient was admitted complaining of pain in her buttock area as a result of a sacral tumor. It w...
متن کاملRight upper pulmonary vein metastasis from hepatocarcinoma
Metastatic tumor involvement of the heart is uncommon but may occur with all types of primary neoplasms. We report the case of a 51-year-old male who developed a massive mass involving the upper right pulmonary vein. The tumor was removed and the final pathology report disclosed metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma. Hepatocellular carcinoma affecting the pulmonary veins is a very rare condition.
