pubmed:abstractText |
Primary cardiac tumors are rare clinical entities. Benign tumors are often amenable to surgical excision, whereas malignant tumors are seldom resectable. Five patients have been reported to undergo orthotopic heart transplantation for inoperable primary cardiac tumors. We review the clinical course of these five patients and present our institutional experience with three patients who underwent orthotopic heart transplantation as primary therapy for unresectable cardiac tumors.
