Primary leiomyosarcoma of the heart: a rare cause of obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract.

J P Fox1, E Freitas, D C McGiffin, A A Firouz-Abadi, M J West.   

Abstract

Primary cardiac tumours are rare and frequently only diagnosed post-mortem. Recent improvements in non-invasive imaging techniques have led to an increasing number being diagnosed in life, allowing surgical resection. We report a primary leiomyosarcoma presenting with obstruction of the left ventricular outflow tract.
