RESUMEN

This is an account of an interesting case with an unusual cardiac presentation. He is a man in his 60s who presented with chest tightness to the accident and emergency unit. The initial thoughts were of acute coronary syndrome or acute aortic syndrome. The initial set of investigations was non-conclusive. His echocardiogram which was done during hospital admission showed asymmetric hypertrophy of the heart muscle. It was prudent to assess that new finding with an MRI scan. The patient presented to the hospital twice during the investigation and was treated for a lower respiratory tract infection. The MRI report showed an interventricular mass lesion extending to the right ventricular free wall with angiosarcoma being high up in the differential diagnosis. Going through the heart team discussion, the decision was to go for a transcatheter biopsy. The biopsy showed B-cell lymphoma. The treatment started and interestingly with satisfactory results.
