ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

We present a case of detection of a right atrial mass during surveillance echocardiography, mimicking myxoma. Cardiac magnetic resonance and computed tomography revealed infiltration into the pericardium, suggesting malignancy. Abdominal computed tomography showed multiple liver masses that were histologically positive for metastatic amelanotic melanoma. Under immunotherapy adequate remission was achieved.
