(a) Posteroanterior chest radiograph (obtained before surgery) reveals a large mass (T) adjacent to the left ventricle. (b) Contrast-enhanced CT at the level of the left ventricle (performed after initial surgery) revealed a hypodense tumor mass (T) of max. 6 cm, at this height adherent to the dorsal myocardium of the left ventricle (V). Note pericardial effusion (*). In the same CT-procedure, multiple lung and liver metastases were found.
