Use of Multimodal Imaging for Diagnosis and Management of Pulmonary Artery Sarcoma Mimicking as Acute Pulmonary Embolism
Pulmonary artery sarcoma is a rare intravascular tumor that mimics pulmonary embolus. Early recognition and referral to surgery is important because nonsurgically treated tumors have a poor prognosis. Here, we describe a case of pulmonary artery sarcoma diagnosed with multimodal imaging, which also aided in surgical planning.
