Metastatic cancer to the heart is not rare. From 1963 through 1980, 525 patients with a histologic diagnosis of malignant disease underwent autopsy. Of these, 64 cases (12.2%) had cardiac metastasis. Carcinoma of the breast and lung, the leukemia and lymphomas constituted the large majority. But carcinoma of alimentary tract spread to the heart with low frequency.

About the site of metastasis, pericardial or myo-cardial involvement constituted the large majority. The left heart was involved in 61% and the right in 30%. In this series, 23.4% of the cases had sub-jective symptoms, that might be related to cardiac metastasis.
