Abstract

Endometrial adenocarcinoma rarely metastasizes to the heart. Few reports in the literature have discussed such situations with this type of carcinoma. Most metastases to the heart originate from lung, breast, thyroid, or skin (melanoma). In most cases, only one heart cavity is involved. We report a rare case of a 66 year old woman with endometrial adenocarcinoma who has metastases to both the right and left ventricles
