Abstract
Cases of primary malignant cardiac neoplasms (2) are presented. The first, an angiosarcoma of the right atrium, developed in a 44 yr old housewife, who survived 23 days from the time of presentation; diagnosis was made at necropsy. The second, an embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of the right ventricle, developed in a 17 yr old student; diagnosis was made by angiocardiography. He underwent surgery and cytotoxic and irradiation therapy and died 14 mo. later.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
