Primitive Heart Undifferenciated Sarcoma: A case Report and Literature Review Primitive Heart Undifferenciated Sarcoma: A case Report and Literature Review

Abstract The primary malignant cardiac tumors are extremely rare, they represent 25% of all primitive cardiac tumors. We report a case of a man aged 45 years with a tumor of the left atrium, discovered by a dyspnea, hemoptysis and faintness, chest X-ray showed a cardiomegaly and pulmonary parenchymal overload. The echocardiography found a mass in the left atrium obstructing the mitral orifice at each diastole. A complete surgical resection was performed and pathological examination found an undifferentiated sarcoma, the patient was lost from view for 13 months. The reappearance of dyspnea related to local recurrence without metastasis has required a reoperation, immediate evolution was favorable. By the realisation of this observation, a literature review of the primary heart sarcoma was performed
