Implication
Preoperative imaging warrants cautious interpretation for angiosarcoma resection planning; leaves open need for better modalities in prospective studies.
Structured PICO
P
Population
2 patients (a 31-year-old male and a 37-year-old female) with right atrial angiosarcoma
I
Intervention
Surgical resection of the right atrial mass, with subsequent adjuvant chemotherapy or radiation therapy
O
Outcome
Extent of surgical resection (resection margin status) and prognostic outcomes
Preoperative MRI and CT imaging in patients with cardiac angiosarcomas may not accurately predict the exact extent of tumor infiltration or surgical resection margins.
