Abstract

Los sarcomas cardíacos, son una entidad muy rara que a menudo son asintomáticos hasta que están avanzados, y aun así producen síntomas inespecíficos e imitan otras patologías. El pronóstico sombrío resulta de una invasión local extensa y / o metástasis a distancia en la presentación. Se presenta una paciente de sexo femenino, de 24 años de edad, preveniente del área rural de Paraguay, que fue diagnosticado con sarcoma cardiaco primario. Un año después de la intervención quirúrgica, la paciente regresa al servicio, donde se detecta metástasis a encéfalo, concomitantemente se aprecia miasis, por lo que es ingresada a la unidad de cuidados intensivos, para seguimiento. Se puede apreciar la falta total de seguimiento a esta paciente, por lo que ha ingresado en este estado al servicio, por lo que es fundamental la implementación de programas de seguimiento a estos pacientes para evitar complicaciones prevenibles.
