ABSTRACT
Primary endobronchial leiomyosarcoma is extremely rare, which is uncommon of primary endobronchial tumors. We report a primary endobronchial leiomyosarcoma. A 19-year-old male patient was admitted to the hospital ulcerative endobrochial tumor in the origin of left lower lobar bronchus and bronchoscopic biopsy showed a endobronchial leiomyoma. The patient underwent a left lower sleeve lobectomy and final pathologic diagnosis was primary endobronchial leiomyosarcoma. After 4 months, follow-up bronchoscopy reveled local recurrence of a endobronchial leiomyosarcoma on a left main bronchus. A left completion pneumonectomy was perfomed and he was discharged without complications.

Primary cardiac myxosarcoma is extremely rare, which is uncommon in primary cardiac tumors. We report a primary cardiac myxosarcoma in a 40-year-old female patient who was admitted to the hospital because of exertional dyspnea and palpitation. The patient underwent emergency operation immediately after the intracardiac (left atrium) tumor was discovered by an echocardiography. Palliative tumor removal was done and final pathologic diagnosis was primary cardiac myxosarcoma. She was discharged without complications.
