Abstract Primary malignant cardiac tumors are exceedingly rare and dangerous, often leading to very early death after initial symptom presentation. Each case poses a unique challenge, as no standardized practice guidelines have been developed due to their sheer rarity. Surgical excision and adjuvant therapy remain the mainstays of treatment. However, resection is impeded by the unique challenges of cardiac surgery and growth characteristics of the tumors, both contributing to high rates of recurrence. We present two cases of successfully treated primary cardiac sarcoma with survival rates exceeding expectations.
