Abstract

Cardiac sarcomas are an extremely rare clinical entity; they have an aggressive clinical course with extremely poor prognosis. Cardiac sarcomas can arise in any part of the heart and can be further classified by histological subtype, including: angiosarcomas, rhabdomyosarcomas, intimal sarcomas, or undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcomas. These tumours can present with circulatory obstruction, valve dysfunction, emboli, or arrhythmias. It is rare for sarcomas to present with a paraneoplastic syndrome.
