ABSTRACT
We report a case of angiosarcoma involving the right ventricle. The patient was seen in our Cardiology Department and subsequently referred to our unit for surgery. He gave a 1-week history of lethargy, chest pain, breathlessness on exertion, fevers, and night sweats. Echocardiography and computed tomography of the chest showed a large pericardial effusion with multiple densities, raising suspicions of a hemorrhagic effusion. Surgical exploration showed an epicardial mass. Histopathology revealed angiosarcoma.
