We report a patient with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder who had metastatic nodules in the myocardium of the left ventricle and tumour emboli in the left circumflex artery which caused myocardial infarction with ventricular rupture and haemopericardium. Cardiac metastasis of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder is discussed and the literature reviewed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
