Abstract
Clinical manifestations of cancer can be categorized as resulting from direct tissue injury from the primary tumor, distant metastatic spread, or aberrant biological activity, also known as a paraneoplastic syndrome. Soft tissue sarcomas are a rare group of malignant tumors of mesenchymal origin which typically present with direct tissue injury, exerting their harmful potential by compression and mass effect. We describe a rare case of an occult retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma presenting with marantic endocarditis. To date, there is a paucity of available medical literature relating sarcoma to marantic endocarditis.
