Abstract

In most cases, dyspnoea, chest pain and negative T waves found on ECG represent myocardial ischaemia, pulmonary embolism, left ventricular hypertrophy or pericarditis. In some cases, the cause is unusual. We discuss here the case of a 76-year-old woman presenting with chest pain and dyspnoea as symptoms of a metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma located in her right ventricular septum and incidentally found on coronary angiography.
Keywords: cardiac metastasis; right ventircular mass; neovessels; coronary angiography; dyspnea; chest pain cardiac metastasis; right ventircular mass; neovessels; coronary angiography; dyspnea; chest pain
