Primary malignant cardiac tumors.

Our experience with primary malignant cardiac tumors is reviewed. Six adult patients were treated surgically during a 10-year period. A preoperative diagnosis of cardiac "tumor" was established in all cases by means of echocardiography. Surgery was possible in each case. Adjuvant therapy was also used. All patients died between 3 weeks and 43 months from the first operation. The importance of an aggressive surgical attitude and the role of adjuvant therapy is discussed.

The Authors report on some cases of primary gastrointestinal N-H lymphoma observed in their experience and discuss about the most significant clinical and pathological data. They conclude that currently surgical treatment is the first fundamental step of a multidisciplinary therapeutic program, which may allow an improvement of the prognosis.
