Article Synopsis
- Head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNSCC) are prevalent cancers that can spread to other parts of the body, but heart metastasis from HNSCC is rare and poses serious treatment challenges.
- Cardiac metastasis is linked to a poor prognosis, and there is no standardized approach for diagnosing and treating these cases due to their infrequency.
- The article discusses a specific case of cardiac metastasis from buccal squamous cell carcinoma, which was unexpectedly discovered using an advanced imaging technique called FDG PET/CT.

Here, we present the case of a 59-year-old man with squamous cell carcinoma of the lung presented with asymptomatic diffuse ST segment depression and troponin T increase.
