Abstract:Summary
A rare form of primary heart tumour, a liposarcoma, is reported. A discussion of diagnosis and modalities of treatment of primary heart sarcomas is presented.
Total surgical resection of cardiac liposarcoma is the only curative option, as it tends to local and distant recurrence. Therefore, a frequent follow-up examination should be considered.
