Cardiac involvement by lymphoma: diagnostic difficulties

J G Coghlan et al. Eur Heart J. 1989 Aug.

Abstract

A patient presenting with recurrent tamponade was subsequently shown to have non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. Catheterization demonstrated obstruction of the tricuspid valve by tumour and shunting through a patent foramen ovale. The difficulties in making an ante-mortem diagnosis of cardiac lymphoma are discussed.
