Abstract

The presence of cardiac metastasis from cervical carcinoma is extremely rare. The diagnosis is made almost exclusively postmortem. Only with a high index of suspicion it is possible to make a diagnosis antemortem. Here we presented a case of uterine cervical carcinoma after surgery and chemotherapy who presented with rising serum SCC and was arranged for 18F-FDG-PET/CT scan. The 18F-FDG-PET/CT scan showed an unexpected metastasis in the right ventricle of the heart. The following CT and MRI also showed a mass in the right ventricle.
