Asymptomatic Metastatic Osteosarcoma to The Right Atrium: Case Report and Review of The Literature

Abstract

The heart may rarely be affected by primary or secondary tumors. Cardiac osteosarcoma metastasis is extremely rare and has been documented in young adults as shown in a number of case reports. IT may occur by local extension or haematogenous spread [1-2]. Only 5% of cases affect the endocardium or chamber cavities. We report a rare case of a 17-year-old children with asymptomatic cardiac osteosarcoma metastasis suspected by trans-thoracic echocardiography for pre-chemotherapy assessment and then confirmed by MRI.
