Concurrent chemoradiotherapy for cardiac metastasis after oesophageal carcinoma resection

Oesophageal cancer can rarely metastasize to the heart. We present a case report of a 48-year-old male patient who was diagnosed with cardiac oligometastasis six months after resection of the oesophageal cancer. The patient was treated with rotational intensity-modulated radiation therapy and concurrent chemotherapy, which was well-tolerated and resulted in complete tumor remission after three months of follow-up. Our findings suggest that this treatment approach may be effective for treating cardiac oligometastasis after oesophageal cancer surgery. Early detection and timely treatment may improve patient outcomes.
