Primary cardiac sarcomas are rare clinical entities with an incidence rate of 0.0001% in collected autopsy series and are regarded as very aggressive tumors. We herein describe a 21-year-old woman presenting with syncope, dyspnea, and abdominal distention. She suffered from massive ascites, plural effusion, and liver congestion demonstrated by abdominal sonography and chest X-ray. Transthoracic echocardiography revealed a heterogeneous solid mass located in the right atrium; therefore, the patient underwent radical surgical excision of the tumor and 3 cycles of adjuvant chemotherapy. Fifteen months after surgery, she was having a favorable life quality without any evidence of recurrence.
原发性心脏肉瘤是罕见的临床病症，在收集的尸检系列中的发病率为0.0001%，被视为极具侵袭性的肿瘤。我们在此描述一名21岁女性，她出现了晕厥、呼吸困难和腹胀症状。腹部超声和胸部X光检查显示她患有大量腹水、胸腔积液和肝淤血。经胸超声心动图显示右心房有一个不均匀的实性肿块；因此，该患者接受了肿瘤根治性手术切除及3个周期的辅助化疗。术后15个月，她生活质量良好，无任何复发迹象。
