Abstract
Angiosarcoma of the heart is a rare neoplasm. The clinical manifestations are surprisingly consistent, but the diagnosis is rarely made before death. A patient with such a tumor was described here and the current literature was reviewed. Venous angiography and pericardiectomy are recommended in patients with hemorrhagic pericardial tamponade when the cause is unclear.Entities:
