Abstract

Primary sarcomas of the pulmonary arteries are and the clinical presentation closely resembles several more common conditions, Therefore they are seldomly diagnosed preoperatively without a pathologic esxamination of sufficient surgical specimen. Treatment of these tumors remains primarily surgical as possible and the role of the adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy is not yet evident We report a case of primary sarcoma of pulmonary artery clinically suspected of carcinoid partially involving the pulmonary parechyme and the bronchus mainly in the left main pulmonary artery and the vein with left intrapericardial pneumonectomy.
