Cardiac metastasis in a living patient with oral cancer

Cardiac metastasis from head and neck cancers are very rare. Metastases to heart are mostly diagnosed at autopsy, and seldom found while patients are alive. Patients with cardiac metastasis do not present with specific symptoms in the early stages, and diagnosis is often delayed until the disease has advanced significantly. Here, we report a 66-year-old lady who was diagnosed with cardiac metastasis 10 months after surgical resection of oral cancer. She died one month following the discovery of cardiac metastasis.
