Abstract
Cardiac metastases from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) are very rare. We describe the case of a woman with RCC with cardiac metastases involving the entire right atrium, penetrating through the myocardium, with extension into the tricuspid valve and right ventricle. This report highlights the unique challenge of the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac metastases in RCC.
