== Prognosis ==
 
The vast majority of the tumors of the heart have a benign course and are not directly fatal.  However, even the benign tumors of the heart can be lethal due to either direct extension into the electrical conduction system of the heart (causing [[third degree AV block|complete heart block]] or a fatal dysrhythmia), or due to [[embolism|emboli]] from the tumor mass that may have lethal sequelae.
 
The malignant tumors of the heart have a worse prognosis.  Cardiac sarcomas generally lead to death within 2 years of diagnosis, due to rapid infiltration of the myocardium of the heart and obstruction of the normal flow of blood within the heart.<ref name="Burke-Sarcoma">{{cite journal | author=Burke AP, Cowan D, Virmani R | title=Primary sarcomas of the heart | journal=Cancer | year=1992 | volume=69 | issue=2 | pages=387-95 | id=PMID 1728367}}</ref><ref name="Burke-Osteosarcoma">{{cite journal | author=Burke AP, Virmani R | title=Osteosarcomas of the heart | journal=Am J Surg Pathol | year=1991 | volume=15 | issue=3 | pages=289-95 | id=PMID 1705103}}</ref>
