[Myocardial metastasis of bronchial carcinoma. Disclosed by x-ray computed tomography].
One case of cardiac metastasis of epidermoid carcinoma discovered with CT during the preoperative assessment is reported. The authors stress that the discovery of cardiac metastases in vivo is relatively infrequent. They emphasize the role of imaging, which allows ruling out the operation in these cases.
