Abstract

A 71-year-old man, a cigarette smoker with long-term asbestos exposure, developed multifocal malignant sarcomatous pleural mesothelioma that metastasized to the left ventricular endocardium without invading pericardium, myocardium, or the contiguous pulmonary vein. This is the first reported case of malignant pleural mesothelioma to metastasize in such a manner.
