ABSTRACT

The cardiac sarcomas, although very rare, represent the quasi-totality of the primitive sly tumors of the heart. It is about a retrospective study of two cases of cardiac sarcomas operated in Sahloul university hospital of Sousse. Cases it is about a woman and a man: The respective ages were 22 and 45 years. The clinical pattern of the patients was polymorphic and the diagnosis put by cardiac echography. Both patients had a surgical resection and a chemotherapy. Both patients died in 13 and 18 months after the diagnosis. Because of the extreme rarity of the cardiac sarcomas, there is no precise therapeutic strategy. The only consensus concerns the surgery as soon as the diagnosis of cardiac tumor is put. The prognosis of these tumors is extremely redoubtable with a survival which does not exceed 2 years after the beginning of the symptomatology
