[Metastatic Right Atrial Tumor of Renal Cell Carcinoma:Report of a Case]

Metastatic cardiac tumors are known to be more common than primary cardiac tumors, and most patients are asymptomatic. In patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) with cardiac metastases, total tumor resection is known to improve the prognosis. We report a case of a successfully resected RCC with right atrial metastasis under cardiopulmonary bypass. A 71-year-old female with abdominal distention was diagnosed with right RCC and extension to the right atrium. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy, she underwent right nephrectomy and neiection of intraocular tumor extention with partial right atrium under cardiopulmonary bypass, because the tumor tightly adhered to the right atrium. She had a good postoperative course and was discharged home on the 22nd postoperative day. Nine months after surgery, she shows no sign of recurrence.
