Abstract:
:The literature on malignant cardiac tumors is relatively limited because they are rare, especially among the Chinese population. We analyzed 14 patients diagnosed with malignant cardiac tumors in Fuwai Hospital and present the results of surgical treatments on the tumors. The mean age at tumor diagnosis was 47 years in a male-dominated cohort. There was a high frequency of pericardial effusion and coronary artery involvement in our group. We compared the survival times of patients who received different treatments and found that surgery improved prognosis of tumors, especially for patients who underwent orthotopic heart transplantation.
