Malignant tumours of the heart and pericardium are rare. Secondary tumours are 20 to 40 times more common than primary tumours. The authors report the case of a cardiac metastasis of a myxoid liposarcoma of the inguinal region. Surgical ablation with chemotherapy significantly improved the patient' clinical and haemodynamic status. A review of the literature shows that postoperative survival does not exceed 2 years, but the prognosis is better when chemotherapy is associated with surgery. Transoesophageal echocardiography is an excellent diagnostic imaging method. It provides a better evaluation of the tumour and its location, compared to thoracic CT scan and transthoracic echocardiography.
