Cardiac angiosarcoma responding to multidisciplinary treatment

Abstract
Early detection of cardiac angiosarcoma is usually difficult and the prognosis is very poor. We experienced a 32-year-old man with cardiac angiosarcoma who responded to multidisciplinary treatment with recombinant interleukin-2, postoperative chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide, vincristine, doxorubicin, Dacarbazine) and radiation. At 30 months after surgery, there was no evidence of recurrence or metastasis in spite of incomplete resection.
