Abstract:
Pulmonary artery (PA) sarcoma is a rare tumor with an overall poor prognosis. It can often be misdiagnosed due to its nonspecific presentation and its similitude to pulmonary embolism on imaging. We, herein, describe the case of a 60-year-old male with a primary PA sarcoma for which a surgical approach was undertaken. Due to the low incidence of PA and therefore the absence of clear guidelines on the management of this disease, we also present a succinct literature review on the subject.
