RESUMO
Cardiac tumors are rare. In autopsic series, their incidence is 0.02 - 0.03%. Liposarcoma is an exceptionnel cause of cardiac metastasis. We report the case of a 55 years old patient, operated for multiple localisations of liposarcoma [left leg, left arm, abdomen]. As well as, he has a vertebral metastasis treated by radiotherapy. Two months later, the patient consulted for dyspnoea. A cardiac ultrasound tomography showed dilated right cavities with a volumineous intra ventricular mass. A thoracic computed tomography was showed a tissular intracardiac mass. The patient was operated in a cardiovascular surgery service, but died in post operative period. The purpose of this study is to specify the cardiac metastasis incidence, the diagnostic methods and therapic modalities

Basal cell carcinoma [BCC] accounts for 2 to 3% of all vulvar malignancies and for less than 1% of all BCC. More than 250 cases of vulvar BCC have been reported in the literature. Clinical, pathological and follow up data are similar to results in the present series. Treatment of choice consists of surgical excision with tumor-free margins. Because of local recurrence risk and possible association with other primary cancers in this age group, long term follow-up is necessary. We report a case of BCC of the vulva occurring in a 60 years old woman
