Although several thousand patients are diagnosed with sarcoma annually in the United States, metastases to the heart are very uncommon. In this case report, an overall low frequency cancer presents masquerading with common cardiac symptomology. This case illustrates the importance for detailed diagnostic cardiac evaluations and heightened suspicion by physicians to consider metastatic disease to the heart in cancer patients with cardiovascular complications. Also discussed is a review of surgical and chemotherapeutic options for this problem.
