Résumé

A young patient, recently treated for squamous cell penile carcinoma, presented with acute myocardial infarction and severe heart failure. Despite repeatedly ruling out metastatic disease on imaging, surgery for a mechanical assist device revealed unexpected squamous cell metastasis in the pericardium. Consequently, palliative care was initiated.
