Abstract EN
Tumour embolisms are rare and in most cases sudden causes of death.
Diagnosing this rare condition is still very challenging in the daily clinical routine.
In this report we present a case of a lethal sudden pulmonary tumour embolism in a 71-year-old male patient, who was admitted for elective invasive coronary angiography due to suspected coronary artery disease.
The patient had suspected Ormond’s disease and no previous history of tumour burden.
Possible diagnostic and treatment options are discussed herein and an overview of the current literature is also presented.
