Primary tumors of the heart are extremely rare, and about 25 per cent of all primary cardiac tumors are malignant. Recently We experinced three cases of primary malignant tumor; malignant fibrous histiwytoma, carcinosarcoma, and synovial sarcoma, These three cases involved 2 men and 1 woman. There was one operative death, and two operative survivors died of metastatic disease at 12 months postoperatively in spite of chemotherapy and radiotherapy. We report these three cases of primary malignant cardiac tumors with review of the literatures.

Primary intrathoracic neoplasms occur frequently, and the most frequent intrathoracic tumors are of pulmonary or bronchogenic origin. Second in frequency are mediastinal tumors, and least frequency or comparatively rare are the neoplasms arising from the wall of the thorax and extending into the thoracic cavity. Of all intrathoracic tumors, fibroma is extremely rare. Recently, we have experienced a huge rapid growing intrathoracic fibroma originating from thoracic wall, which is removed successfully and confirmed histopathologically. Authors present one case of fibroma and discussion with a brief review of the relevant literatures.

It is known that an interesting and unusual axillary artery thrombosis may develop over a period of time if an improperly adjusted crutch impinges repeatedly on the axilla. A 39 year-old male developed occlusion of left axillary artery and gangrenes of the left fingers after he had used axillary crutch for 25 years because of limping of the left leg resulting from poliomyelitis. The left hand was salvaged by successful thrombectomy. We report this case, review and discuss the literatures.

Thoracic outlet syndrome presents with symptoms resulting from pressure on either the subclavian vessels or the lower trunk of the brachial plexus. It may be caused by a number of abnormalities, including degenerative or bony disorders, trauma to the cervical spine, fibromuscular bands, vascular abnormalities, and spasm of the anterior scalene muscle. We experienced a case of thoracic outlet syndrome [ caused by cervical rib .We report a case with review of literatures.

Isolated bronchogenic cysts of the diaphragm are rare abnormalities. They are usually asymptomatic unless secondarily infected or large enough to cause compression of vital structures. The patient was a 31-year-old man and had no symptoms except mild postprandial epigastric discomfort. The chest X-ray and chest C-T examination revealed a mediastinal mass at the left cardio-vertebro-phrenic angle. We performed the operation under the impression of solid mass at mediastinum. We revealed that the mass was bronchogenic cyst in diaphragm. Therefore we report this case with review of literatures.

Primary cardiac lipoma is an extremely rare condition. We reports a case of primary lipoma located mainly in the right atrium of the heart in a 58-year-old male patient. The initial presenting symptoms were dyspnea followed by rapidly progress!ve congestive heart failure. Echocardiogram revealed huge mass on right atrium with stalk arising from septum. Under cardiopulmonary bypass the mass was removed and revealed characteristic findings of lipoma on microscope. The patient was recovered without any problem. We would like to describe this case of rare tumor with the review of literatures.

In the paper, some probability convergence properties of series for rowwise sums of negatively superadditive dependent (NSD) random variables are discussed. We establish some sharp results on these convergence for NSD random variables under some general settings, which generalize and improve the corresponding ones of some known literatures.
