Lung cancer mimicking left atrial mass.

K K Kadappu1, R Rajaratnam, H Kachwalla, P D Nguyen.   

Abstract

Cardiac involvement in lung cancer is found in up to 25% of autopsy cases. However, despite the considerable mortality and morbidity associated with cardiac metastasis, antemortem diagnosis is unusual. A rare case of lung cancer presenting as a left atrial mass is reported.
