Abstract: | We report a patient with transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder who had metastatic nodules in the myocardium of the left ventricle and tumour emboli in the left circumflex artery which caused myocardial infarction with ventricular rupture and haemopericardium. Cardiac metastasis of transitional cell carcinoma of the bladder is discussed and the literature reviewed. |
