| Popis: | A rare case of cardiac metastasis from myxoid liposarcoma with congestive heart failure is reported.On 2 separate occasions radiotherapy given by the cobalt 60 beam produced rapid regression of metastasis with consequent relief of heart failure. A higher dose of 6,600 rads in 5 weeks successfully eradicated a large recurrent mass in the right inguinal area and perineum. |
