Résumé
Myxosarcoma only accounts for a very small proportion of primary malignant tumors of the heart. The disease has no specificity in clinical manifestations or features on medical images. In this case study, we report about a middle-aged female patient afflicted with cardiac myxosarcoma. The initial transthoracic echocardiography of the patient revealed a cardiac myxoma. However, the postoperative histopathology confirmed the presence of a malignant cardiac myxosarcoma. Post-surgery follow-up imaging examinations revealed local recurrence in the left atrium as well as soft-tissue and bone metastases. The recurrent tumor and metastases were subsequently treated with chemotherapy and radiotherapy. However, the tumor did not respond to treatment and the disease progressed.
