ABSTRACT
Metastases to the heart are rarely diagnosed before the patient dies. A 26-year-old man was admitted with multiple metastasis of a testicular embryonal carcinoma and he was found to have intracardiac metastasis. Echocardiography showed that he had a mass rising from the interventricular septum and it was floating through the right ventricular outflow tract. The histology of the mass we removed from the right ventricle was consistent with testicular embryonal carcinoma. The patient made a smooth recovery after surgical intervention and chemotherapy. We believe this is the first reported case of testicular embryonal carcinoma that metastasized to the heart and that was successfully removed via surgery in Korea.
