  We describe a case of a patient presenting with chest pain and ECG abnormalities concerning for ST-elevation myocardial infarction that eventually was found to have an incidental right ventricular mass on chest CT angiogram. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  In June 2017, she returned to the hospital, this time with complaints of acute onset chest pain. [medpagetoday.com]

  However, the differential diagnosis is critical and when a patient is encountered with chest pain and ST elevation, STEMI should not be the only diagnosis considered. [turkjemergmed.com]

• Tachycardia

  In this case, a cardiac metastasis from a squamous cell carcinoma presented with both persistent ST elevation and paroxysmal supraventricular tachycardia. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  […] manifested as tachycardia-bradycardia syndrome that mimicked sick sinus syndrome. [revespcardiol.org]

  For this reason, paragangliomas can cause episodes of tachycardia, headaches, hypertension, and sweating. [verywellhealth.com]

  Electrocardiography demonstrated sinus tachycardia at 113 bpm, without any other anomaly. The next day, the patient awoke experiencing sudden dyspnea, dizziness, fever, and tachycardia. On exam, she looked ill, diaphoretic, and mildly distressed. [current-oncology.com]

• Cardiomegaly

  The chest roentgenogram showed a massive right pleural effusion with apparent cardiomegaly. The cardiac silhouette over the right heart border was obliterated and the mediastinum was widened. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  A chest X-ray posteroanterior view showed right-sided pleural effusion and cardiomegaly [Figure 1]. A thoracocentesis was done, and 750 ml of hemorrhagic pleural fluid was evacuated. [jacpjournal.org]

  Plain radiograph Findings are non-specific on chest x-ray, but may include: cardiomegaly (e.g. indicating pericardial effusion and/or cardiac congestion) gross mediastinal lymphadenopathy Comparison with previous films is important. [radiopaedia.org]

  Chest x-ray showed mild cardiomegaly and minimal right pleural effusion. Hematology parameters were normal in the laboratory analysis. Creatinine was 2.3 mg/dL; Na +, 140 mmol/L; K +, 6,3 mmol/L, and digoxin was within therapeutic values. [revespcardiol.org]

• Fracture

  […] metastasis of a small-cell lung cancer was found on the whole-body F-fluoro-deoxy-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (F-FDG-PET/CT) of a 69-year-old smoker investigated for a right pulmonary mass discovered on chest radiography after a fracture [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  With this as basis, two kinds of integrated models are presented which can be implemented in a finite-element code and used in ductile fracture simulations, in particular for metal forming processes. [authormapper.com]

• Asthenia

  […] patients with severe infusion reactions Infusion reactions consist of a symptom complex characterized by fever and chills, and on occasion include nausea, vomiting, pain (in some cases at tumor sites), headache, dizziness, dyspnea, hypotension, rash, and asthenia [herceptin.com]

  Sometimes, the patient complains of nonspecific symptoms, such as asthenia or exercise intolerance, which are attributed to other causes. [revespcardiol.org]

  During the previous hospitalization, for worsening edema and marked anorexia and asthenia, he underwent abdominal computed tomography (CT), which revealed nodular lesions in the liver and extensive thrombosis of the portal vein, extending up to the superior [revportcardiol.org]

• Confusion

  The chief significance of symptoms caused by metastatic cardiac tumors is that they may be confused with symptoms caused by cardiac toxicity from chemotherapy. [verywellhealth.com]

On imaging workup, including transthoracic echocardiography and cardiac computed tomography, we found a large right ventricular mass. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

A detailed cardiac workup revealed no significant findings on echocardiogram, nuclear medicine stress test, or holter monitoring. Further evaluation with octreoscan revealed a small focus of abnormal uptake adjacent to the left atrial appendage. [aocr.org]

Because of the short amount of time, workup for the primary cancer including colonoscopy and prostate-specific antigen screening was not performed. [jmedicalcasereports.biomedcentral.com]

• Pericardial Effusion

  Transthoracic echocardiography revealed massive localized pericardial effusion with the collapse of both ventricles and the mass-like echo in the left atrium. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  However, pericardial effusion is not a reliable sign of pericardial involvement by lymphoma, since effusion may be present in patients with or without pericardial tumor. [pubs.rsna.org]

  Most frequent CT features of pericardial metastases include pericardial effusion, prepericardial lymph nodes, and pericardial thickening, enhancement, and nodules in order of decreasing frequency 2. [radiopaedia.org]

  Computed tomographic imaging revealed a small bowel mass as well as a pericardial effusion. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging showed a tricuspid mass. Endomyocardial biopsy confirmed metastatic disease consistent with a cervical primary. [scholars.northwestern.edu]
