# An exceptional case of huge myxofibrosarcoma of the pericardium

## TL;DR

This paper describes a rare case of a massive myxofibrosarcoma tumor in the pericardium, which was surgically managed.

## Contribution

The novelty lies in reporting an exceptionally large pericardial myxofibrosarcoma case, highlighting its rarity and surgical treatment.

## Key findings

- The tumor weighed 4200 grams, making it an exceptional case of pericardial myxofibrosarcoma.
- Primary cardiac myxofibrosarcoma is typically located in the left atrium, but pericardial location is extremely rare.
- Surgical management is the main treatment approach for such tumors.

## Abstract

Primary cardiac myxofibrosarcoma is a rare malignant tumour usually found in the left atrium. Its pericardial location is extremely rare, and its management is mainly based on surgery. We report a historical case of myxofibrosarcoma of the pericardium weighing 4200 g.
