    Most malignant tumors of the heart are metastatic. Metastatic cardiac tumors are usually associated with Wilms tumor, neuroblastoma, and non-Hodgkin lymphoma in children (Br J Radiol 71:336-339). Osteosarcoma rarely metastasizes to the heart. Twenty-four cases have been reported in the literature so far. The right side of the heart is more commonly involved than the left, and the pericardium and/or myocardium is more frequently involved than the endocardium (Br J Radiol 71:336-339). We report a rare case of osteogenic sarcoma of the right femur with left ventricular metastases presenting with ventricular tachycardia that has not been reported previously.
