Left atrial invasion by lung cancer via haematogenous pathways is a relatively uncommon but potentially life-threatening event. While several cardiac complications of cardiac involvement have been previously described, the evolution towards cerebral stroke has been rarely reported. In this case report, we describe an atypical case of haematogenous metastatic invasion of the left atrium from pulmonary neoplasm extension presenting as an ipsilateral stroke whose ASCO classification changed during the clinical management.
肺癌经血行途径侵犯左心房是一种相对罕见但可能危及生命的情况。虽然先前已经描述了心脏受累的几种心脏并发症,但向脑卒中介入的情况却鲜有报道。在本病例报告中,我们描述了一例非典型病例,即肺肿瘤扩展经血行转移侵犯左心房,表现为同侧脑卒中,其美国临床肿瘤学会(ASCO)分类在临床管理过程中发生了变化。
