Primary osteosarcoma accounts for 3% of all childhood cancer. It commonly occurs during the adolescent growth spurt and is more common in boys than girls and in African Americans than white people. The 5-year survival is approximately 79%. Cardiac metastasis of osteosarcoma is exceedingly rare; we present an unusual case in a 22-year-old man with significant intracardiac tumor burden. Additionally, we review the current pediatric cardiac tumor literature.
原发性骨肉瘤占儿童所有癌症的3%。它通常发生在青春期生长突增期，在男孩中比女孩更常见，在非裔美国人中比白人更常见。5年生存率约为79%。骨肉瘤的心脏转移极为罕见；我们报告了一例不同寻常的病例，患者为一名22岁男性，心脏内肿瘤负荷较大。此外，我们还综述了当前的儿科心脏肿瘤文献。
