Area of Science:

  • Cardiology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Primary cardiac tumors are rare, with angiosarcoma being the most common malignant type.
  • Early diagnosis of cardiac angiosarcoma is challenging due to nonspecific symptoms and limitations of non-invasive imaging.
  • Cardiac tamponade is a frequent and life-threatening complication of cardiac tumors.
