A patient is reported whose symptoms and clinical features were interpreted as pulmonary embolism. However, the ultimate diagnosis was malignant fibrous histiocytoma of the pulmonary artery, which was made evident at operation. Although extremely rare in the early medical literature, primary sarcoma of the pulmonary artery has been reported more frequently during the last decade. This patient may provide further insight into the clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic features of primary sarcomas of the pulmonary artery.
据报道，有一名患者的症状和临床特征被诊断为肺栓塞。然而，最终诊断为肺动脉恶性纤维组织细胞瘤，手术时得以明确。虽然在早期医学文献中极为罕见，但在过去十年中，肺动脉原发性肉瘤的报道更为频繁。该患者可能会为肺动脉原发性肉瘤的临床、诊断和治疗特征提供进一步的见解。
