Abstract:
Despite numerous advancements in diagnostics and treatment, lung cancer carries a high mortality rate. This is primarily attributable to the fact that the majority of patients present with stage III or IV disease and otherwise non-specific symptoms. In this article, we discuss a rare case of stage IV lung cancer presenting as supraventricular tachycardia secondary to cardiomediastinal involvement. Unfortunately, by the time the tumor had involved the mediastinum, surgical options were limited and treatment was largely palliative.
