Abstract:
Undifferentiated pleomorphic cardiac sarcomas are extremely rare, highly malignant mesenchymal cardiac neoplasms typically presenting in the sixth decade of life. Here, we have reported a rare case of undifferentiated pleomorphic cardiac sarcoma presenting with dyspnea in a young male. On further evaluations, a large, ill-defined, multilobulated mass was observed in left atrium (LA) with encasement of left circumflex artery, attachment to mitral valve annulus, and invasion through LA wall and pericardium.
