Abstract
Biventricular metastatic heart tumors from gynecological malignancies presented as an acute coronary syndrome with ST segment elevation are an unusual finding. We present a case of stage-4 vulvar carcinoma that metastasized in both the left and right ventricle. The particularity of the case is the echocardiographic aspect in the emergency room: multiple, large, hyperechogenic masses disseminated in the myocardium, with pericardial extension, in context of acute coronary syndrome with ST segment elevation.
期刊介绍：
The journal aims to promote ultrasound diagnosis by publishing papers in a variety of categories, including editorial letters, original papers, review articles, pictorial essays, technical developments, case reports, letters to the editor or occasional special reports (fundamental, clinical as well as methodological and educational papers).
The papers published cover the whole spectrum of the applications of diagnostic medical ultrasonography, including basic science and therapeutic applications.
The journal hosts information regarding the society''s activities, scheduling of accredited training courses in ultrasound diagnosis, as well as the agenda of national and international scientific events.
