Abstract

Intracardiac metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma with functional tricuspid valve stenosis is not common. Furthermore, hepatopulmonary syndrome associated with hepatocellular carcinoma is rarely encountered. We present a case of intracardiac metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma presenting with functional tricuspid valve stenosis accompanied with hepatopulmonary syndrome.
