Carcinoid heart disease is characterized by fibrous plaque deposition on the endocardial surface of the cardiac valves and chambers. It affects the right heart valves in 85% of cases and the left heart valves in 15%. We present an unusual case of a patient with metastatic carcinoid heart disease in wh...
