case_images: The examination revealed a massive tumour metastasis, probably haematogenic spread through the pulmonary veins, filling out almost the whole left atrium (initial size: fig. 1a, fig. 2a). Moreover, 6 weeks later, the left atrial tumour had completely disappeared (fig. 1b, fig. 2c).
case_images: a The four-chamber view reveals a massive left atrial tumour (*), probably out of pulmonary veins. b Thirty-six days after the first tremelimumab infusion regression of the intracardiac metastasis occurred (arrow). c Six weeks later, the left atrial tumour had completely disappeared. LA = Left atrium; LV = left ventricle.
