A rare high-grade osteosarcoma was found in a man's right ventricle, causing exertional dyspnea. Surgical resection and pulmonary valve replacement were necessary for treatment.

Area of Science:

Cardiology
Oncology
Thoracic Surgery

Background:

Right ventricular tumors are rare cardiac masses.
Osteosarcoma is a primary bone cancer, rarely found in the heart.

Observation:

A 41-year-old male presented with dyspnea on exertion.
Imaging revealed a mass on the right ventricle.

Findings:

Surgical resection of the right ventricular mass was performed.
Reconstruction of the right ventricular outflow tract and pulmonary valve replacement were necessary.
Histopathology confirmed the tumor as high-grade osteosarcoma.

Implications:

This case highlights the importance of considering rare diagnoses in cardiac masses.
