چکیده
A rare case of a Wilms tumor with intracardiac neoplastic extension is presented. The good prognosis of even extensive nephroblastoma is the reason for attempting a radical surgical approach to patients with intracardiac tumor thrombus. The exact preoperative delineation of the intracasal tumor extension is essential for a safe and successful operation. Ultrasonography in combination with echocardiography is the preferred modality for detecting intracardiac extension.
