Cardiac metastasis of Ewing's sarcoma is exceedingly rare. A 40-year-old male was admitted with complaints of nonproductive cough, exertional dyspnea, and fatigue since 4 months with a history of abdominal wall swelling which was excised and proven to be Ewing's sarcoma/primitive neuroectodermal tumor (PNET). A transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated inhomogeneous mass located posterior to the left ventricle and a solitary mass protruding into the left atrium through the left inferior pulmonary vein. Due to accompanying pulmonary metastasis and possible poor outcome of the surgery, surgical resection was not considered.
尤因肉瘤的心脏转移极为罕见。一名40岁男性因4个月来出现干咳、劳力性呼吸困难和疲劳症状入院,其有腹壁肿物切除史,病理证实为尤因肉瘤/原始神经外胚层肿瘤(PNET)。经胸超声心动图显示左心室后方有不均匀肿物,且有一个孤立肿物经左下肺静脉突入左心房。由于伴有肺转移且手术预后可能不佳,未考虑手术切除。
