Abstract

Graphical abstract<br />Highlights • The patient presented with fungating skin lesions, remitting fevers, and leukocytosis. • Myocardial perfusion echocardiography aided in the diagnosis of neoplasm in the RVOT. • Fluoroscopy-guided biopsy of the mass confirmed metastatic invasion of SCC. • Evidence for optimal management of cardiac metastasis of SCC is scarce. • This is the first reported case of Marjolin's ulcer with metastasis to the heart.
