We report an unusual metastatic renal cell carcinoma in the right cardiac ventricle in a 53-year-old man who presented with increasing dyspnea. Diagnostic evaluation revealed a left renal tumor without contiguous extension into the inferior vena cava and a right ventricular mass. To our knowledge this is only the second reported case of metastatic renal cell carcinoma to the right cardiac ventricle diagnosed ante mortem. We discuss the case and review the literature.
我们报告了一例罕见的转移性肾细胞癌,发生在一名53岁男性的右心室,该患者因进行性呼吸困难就诊。诊断评估显示左肾肿瘤,未侵犯下腔静脉,同时发现右心室肿块。据我们所知,这是第二例生前诊断为转移性肾细胞癌累及右心室的病例。我们对该病例进行讨论并复习相关文献。
