Abstract

In this study, we present the case of a 34-year-old man who was diagnosed with primary cardiac angiosarcoma 1 month after hospital admission. Cardiac angiosarcoma is a relatively rare disease that can be easily misdiagnosed as pneumonia or other diseases. Although surgery is the preferred treatment to prolong survival time, highly malignant tumors with local infiltration and systemic metastasis can lead to poor prognosis.
