Abstract:
Primary cardiac angiosarcoma is rare and often advances by dissemination. Lungs are the most common metastatic sites, especially when the tumor originates in the right side of the heart. Bone metastases from cardiac angiosarcoma very rarely occur without concurrent pulmonary metastases. We report a case of cardiac angiosarcoma having prominent bone metastases without concurrent pulmonary lesions, as demonstrated by FDG PET/CT scan.
