characteristics of metastatic carcinoid tumor in the heart. Background: Right-sided valvular …

Neuroendocrine neoplasms represent an uncommon disease with an increasing incidence.

Background Most neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) metastasize to the liver, lymph nodes
and, although less frequently, to the bone. The heart is a rare localization for NET …

The aim of the present study was to evaluate frequency, clinical spectrum, and treatment of
myocardial metastases in patients with histologically proven neuroendocrine tumors by …

Abstract Background Focal 68Ga-DOTATATE PET lesions within the myocardium of
neuroendocrine tumor (NET) patients are observed in clinical practice. We determined the …

Metastases from ileal neuroendocrine tumors (NETs) to the myocardium are rare and
generally seen in patients with widespread metastatic NET disease. The objectives of this …

Neuroendocrine tumor (NET) cardiac metastases can be associated with complications
including ventricular outflow obstruction, arrhythmias, heart failure, and cardiac arrest …

This brief report describes an asymptomatic patient with a myocardial mass. Two-
dimensional echocardiography, technetium Tc 99m cardiac nuclear scan, and …
