Pulmonary artery sarcomas (PAS) are rare malignant neoplasms. Right heart failure due to tumour location is the main cause of death in PAS patients. The hemodynamic influence may effect prognosis, but this has not been proven. We aimed identify clinical characteristics and prognostic factors Korea, their association with pulmonary hypertension (PH). patients treated at Asan Medical Center between 2000 2014 were reviewed. examined demographic characteristics, diagnostic treatment modalities....
