Late overlooked intraluminal right atrial metastasis in endometrial carcinoma.

We report the case of an 83-year-old woman that presented with progressive dyspnoea due to an intraluminal right atrial metastasis of an endometrial carcinoma that had been diagnosed 4 years earlier. Treatment up to that point consisted of an hysterectomy and resection and radiation of local recurrences. Follow-up had been interpreted as negative, despite a PET-CT 8 months before presentation which had shown increased FDG uptake in the right atrium, but was unfortunately considered benign.
