The feasibility of surgical intervention for metastatic heart tumors is still being debated. A 76-year-old man with hepatocellular carcinoma underwent comprehensive treatment, which resulted in the only residual tumor being located in the heart. Therefore, surgical intervention was considered. The surgery involved complete removal of the right ventricular wall, including the tumor and an additional 5 mm of surrounding tissue, and formation of the right ventricle. The pathological diagnosis was positive at the cut end, but there has been no recurrence of the tumor within the heart after 10 months of surgery.
