Cardiac angiosarcoma: an unusual presentation with cutaneous metastases.

G J Pomper1, R Gianani, R J Johnston, M N Rizeq.   

Abstract

Angiosarcoma is the most common primary malignant neoplasm of the heart. The incidence of metastatic disease is 66% to 89%; however, initial presentation with metastatic disease is rare. We report the case of a patient who presented initially with soft tissue and cutaneous metastases in the absence of cardiac symptoms.
