Abstract

A 23-year-old man died from the pulmonary manifestations of cardiac angiosarcoma. The absence of all cardiac signs and symptoms was an unusual feature. The clinical outcome was rapidly fatal. Apparently, the presence of cardiac symptoms in a patient with primary cardiac angiosarcoma is not obligatory.
