Primary tumors of the heart are extremely rare, and about 25 per cent of all primary cardiac tumors are malignant. Recently We experinced three cases of primary malignant tumor ; malignant fibrous histiocytoma, carcinosarcoma, and synovial
sarcoma,
these three cases involved 2 men and 1 woman. There was one operative death, ant two operative survivors died of metastatic disease at 12 months postoperatively in spite of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. We report these three cases of primary
malignant
cardiac tumors with review of the literatures.
