Primary tumors of the heart are extremely rare, and about 25 per cent of primary cardiac tumors are malignant. Recently, We experienced a case of primary cardiac liposarcoma occurred on the right ventricular outflow tract and extended into the main pulmonary artery. The patient was 57 year-old man and the chief complaints was severe exertional dyspnea. Emergency operation to relieve the right ventricular outflow tract obstruction was performed under cardiopulmonary bypass. The tumor was 5$ imes$4$ imes$3 cm in size and infiltrated into the right ventricle and ventricular septum. The tumor in the main pulmonary artery was removed without any difficulty but the on the right ventricular outflow tract was difficult to remove completely. The patient was recovered without any specific problems. After successful surgical resection and postoperative radiotherapy the patient discharged with good condition. Herein, the clinical characteristics of cardiac liposarcoma, the problems in differential diagnosis, the prognosis and current therapy are reviewed.
