Abstract
This article discusses the rarity of primary cardiac tumors, particularly angiosarcomas, accounting for 10% of primary cardiac neoplasms. The article highlights the challenge of early diagnosis due to nonspecific symptoms. The importance of sectional imaging, particularly computed tomography (CT) scans, in emergent situations is emphasized.
Teaching point: Despite the rarity of primary cardiac tumors, radiologists should remain alert, especially when pericardial effusion is present.
