Abstract:Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is an aggressive tumor known for its propensity to invade the inferior vena cava (IVC) into the heart. Cardiac metastasis of RCC without IVC involvement is rare. Even rarer is ventricular arrhythmia as the primary manifestation of cardiac metastasis of RCC with only two cases reported.[1,2] We add to the literature the third case, the diagnosis of which was only possible with cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR).
