Case Reports
Unusual intracardiac metastasis of a testicular embryonal carcinoma
Int J Cardiol.

Abstract
In this report, we present a case of a metastasis of an embryonal carcinoma, unusually located in the right atrium, which was clinically revealed by a systemic paradox embolism through an atrial septal defect. The primary tumor was found in an undescended testis.
