Abstract
Primary cardiac sarcoma is a malignant and rare type of tumor that occurs in the heart. About 25% of primary cardiac tumors are malignant, and 95% of these are sarcomas. The most common cardiac sarcoma is the angiosarcoma (about 37%), while others include undifferentiated sarcoma (24%), malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) (11%–24%), leiomyosarcoma (8%-9%), and osteosarcoma (3%–9%). The diagnosis of these tumors is made by imaging techniques and pathological study. This new case report is an opportunity for us to make a reminder of this little-known entity among cardiologists and heart surgeon.
