Heart neoplasms are of increasing interest among clinicians and surgeons. A review of primary malignant cardiac tumors, secondary cardiac tumors and carcinoid heart tumors is presented, with special reference to their pathological and surgical aspects. Primary malignant heart tumors represent about 25% of all cardiac tumors, the great majority are sarcomas and the whole family of this group is described including angiosarcoma, rhabdomyosarcoma, fibrosarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, liposarcoma, neurogenic sarcoma, synovial sarcoma and osteosarcoma; mesothelioma, lymphoma, malignant teratoma and thymoma are also included. Metastatic heart tumors are 20-40 times more common than primary malignancies, their behavior and more relevant aspects in diagnostic and surgical therapy are mentioned. Carcinoid heart tumors represent a distinctive entity and are discussed individually.
心脏肿瘤越来越受到临床医生和外科医生的关注。本文对原发性恶性心脏肿瘤、继发性心脏肿瘤和类癌性心脏肿瘤进行了综述，特别提及了它们的病理和外科方面。原发性恶性心脏肿瘤约占所有心脏肿瘤的25%，其中绝大多数是肉瘤，并描述了该组的所有类型，包括血管肉瘤、横纹肌肉瘤、纤维肉瘤、平滑肌肉瘤、脂肪肉瘤、神经源性肉瘤、滑膜肉瘤和骨肉瘤；间皮瘤、淋巴瘤、恶性畸胎瘤和胸腺瘤也包括在内。转移性心脏肿瘤比原发性恶性肿瘤常见20至40倍，文中提到了它们的行为以及诊断和外科治疗中更相关的方面。类癌性心脏肿瘤是一种独特的实体，并单独进行了讨论。
