چکیده انگلیسی

We present a rare case of cardiac malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH; undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma); to date, fewer than 100 cases of cardiac MFH have been reported. In this case, transthoracic echocardiography revealed cardiac tumors in the left atrium (LA) of a 53-year-old woman with a 3-month history of worsening dyspnea; the largest tumor was found to protrude through the mitral valve in diastole, causing stenosis. Three of the four tumors were resected during emergency surgery; however, the residual tumor extension into the left pulmonary vein could not be removed. Histological findings of the resected tumors, such as organized thrombus and myxomatous tissue changes, indicated that the tumors were benign. After 3 months, the patient underwent total resection for a small mass that developed on her right abdominal wall, which was revealed histologically to be MFH; additionally, the residual mass in the LA had enlarged progressively. After undergoing radiation therapy without further surgery, she died of cerebral bleeding 6 months after cardiac surgery. Postmortem examination revealed that the tumor in the LA was an MFH. Thus, cardiac MFH should be considered as a differential diagnosis for tumors on the posterior wall of the LA.
