Echocardiographic diagnosis of right atrial extension of Wilms' tumor
Abstract
A fourth case is presented of propagation of Wilms' tumor to the right atrium through the inferior vena cava. Ultrasonic examination of the heart was diagnostic of the tumor and the diagnosis was confirmed by angiographic studies and surgical exploration. This report provides the first echocardiographic description of a right atrial tumor in a child.
