Dec 10th, 2020 - Primary cardiac neoplasms are extremely rare, with an autopsy incidence of 0.0001-0.003%. Primary cardiac sarcoma is usually derived from the right atrium and it manifests as chest pain, arrhythmia, hemoptysis, dyspnea, and fatigue. The most commo...

May 26th, 2020 - Complete surgical resection is the most critical factor to achieve better long-term outcomes in treating primary cardiac sarcomas; however, it is oftentimes hampered when there is extensive tumor involvement into important cardiac apparatus. Here,...

May 20th, 2020 - Primary cardiac tumors are extremely rare. Most primary cardiac tumors are benign and around one quarter is malign. Sarcomas are accounting for 95% of these malign tumors and they show different histologies. The prognosis is poor with a mean survi...

Apr 15th, 2020 - Cardiac sarcoma is a rare condition and may mimic atrial myxoma. We present a case report of a man with a cardiac sarcoma. Case report presentation. A 68-year-old man with a permanent pacemaker presented to us with a 4-month history of breathlessn...

Mar 21st, 2020 - BACKGROUND Primary cardiac tumors are rare and mostly benign. Cardiac sarcomas are the most common malignant neoplasms of the heart and harbor a dismal prognosis of 6 to 12 months. The diagnosis of cardiac sarcomas may be challenging. Treatment en...

Sep 6th, 2019 - Introduction: Primary Cardiac Sarcomas (PCS) are exceptionally rare malignancies, representing approximately 25% of all malignant primary cardiac tumors. Due to the rarity of these neoplasms, literature on the characteristics, optimal management,.

Sep 17th, 2018 - Background: Primary cardiac sarcomas are rare and highly lethal tumors. Current understanding of clinicopathologic characteristics associated with primary cardiac sarcoma is limited to case reports and small case series.
