  • Title: Delineation of pulmonary artery sarcoma with multiplane and panoramic transesophageal echocardiography.
    Author: Esakof DD, Schneider AT, Pandian NG, Schwartz SL, Khurana J, Bojar RM, Daly BD.
    Journal: J Am Soc Echocardiogr; 1993; 6(6):619-23. PubMed ID: 8311970.
    Abstract:
    A 38-year-old woman came for treatment with massive hemoptysis. A hilar density was observed on a chest radiograph. Transthoracic echocardiography demonstrated an intravascular pulmonary arterial mass that was studied in further detail with multiplane and panoramic transesophageal echocardiography. Surgical resection proved the mass to be a sarcoma arising from the main pulmonary artery. This case report demonstrates the utility of multiplane and panoramic transesophageal echocardiography in the study of intravascular tumors of the thorax.
