title: [Surgery of infiltrating tumors of the pericardium and myocardium].
abstract: Tumors arising from different organs may infiltrate the peri- and myocardium. Complete resections and defect repairs are possible using a variety of operating techniques. Although longterm survival rates of those patients with advanced tumor stages are unfavorable, individuals can be cured. Almost always, the patient's condition can symptomatically be improved by reduction of cardiac tamponade, venous congestion, and dyspnoe.
