Abstract:
:A 72-year-old man with a large mass in the right atrium and the pulmonary embolism by chest computed tomography was diagnosed as the primary cardiac B-cell lymphoma (PCL) with pulmonary tumor embolism and pericardial effusion. Upon completion of initial chemotherapy, the mass was markedly reduced, and the pulmonary embolism disappeared on magnetic resonance imaging. This rarely diagnosed entity is treatable with chemotherapy for both PCL and pulmonary embolism.
