multimodality imaging of a cardiac angiosarcoma

Primary cardiac angiosarcoma confirmed by multimodality imaging guided liver biopsy.

Primary cardiac angiosarcoma is an extremely rare malignant tumor with various clinical presentations but usually in late stage. We report a case presented with bloody pericardial effusion, in which the final diagnosis was confirmed by multiple imaging modalities such as echocardiography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging and fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomogr...

Multimodality imaging of a cardiac paraganglioma

Paragangliomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors arising from the ganglia of the sympathetic or parasympathetic nervous system. Less than 160 cases of intrapericardial or intracardiac paragangliomas have been reported in the English language peer-reviewed medical literature. Here, we report a case of intrapericardial paraganglioma, which illustrates some typical multimodality imaging features of t...
