  • Title: [Cardiac angiosarcoma].

    Journal: Rev Esp Cardiol; 1996 Apr; 49(4):305-7. PubMed ID: 8650407.
    Abstract:
    We report a case of a 29-year-old patient with recurrent hemorrhagic pericardial effusion secondary to a right atrial mass detected by transthoracic echocardiography. A more detailed anatomic study was provided by transesophageal echocardiogram and nuclear magnetic resonance imaging. During surgery, a biopsy confirmed the diagnosis of angiosarcoma. We discuss the contribution of echocardiography and other noninvasive methods to evaluate intracardiac tumors. A brief review of treatment and prognosis is made.
