Testicular germ cell tumors (GCTs)
metastasize
in a very predictable fashion involving the retroperitoneal nodes first followed by hematogenous spread to distant organs like lungs, liver, and brain.
Metastasis to heart
is an extremely rare entity for GCT and fewer than 20 cases have been reported in the literature so far. We have summarized here a unique case of nonseminomatous germ cell tumor (NSGCT) with intracardiac metastasis resulting in systemic macroembolization to liver, spleen, brain, bowel and musculoskeletal tissues. This led to multiple adverse sequelae including ischemic stroke and bowel perforation.

Rectal adenocarcinoma metastasizes most commonly to the lungs and liver.
Metastasis to heart
, although described in literature, is a very rare phenomenon. We describe the
18
F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography (
18
F-FDG PET-CT) findings of a 45-year-old male who was a biopsy-proven case of adenocarcinoma rectum. Apart from
metastatic disease
involving liver, lungs, bone marrow, and lymph nodes, metastasis to right ventricle was also seen on PET-CT scan.

Cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) metastasizes most commonly to the regional lymph nodes and lungs.
Metastasis to heart
, although described in literature, is a very rare phenomenon. We present the
18
F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography-computed tomography findings in a 50-year-old woman who was a biopsy-proven case of SCC left foot, showing cardiac metastasis in addition to lymph nodes, lungs, and skeletal
metastases
.
