Does the heart ever develop cancer?

667 views

It seems like most cancers are organ-specific (lung, ovary, skin, etc) but I’ve never heard of heart cancer. Is there a reason why?

Edit: Wow! Thanks for all the interesting feedback and comments! I had no idea my question would spark such a fascinating discussion! I learned so much!

It wasn’t cancerous, but my dad had a tumor in his heart that had to be surgically removed.

I know that doesn’t really help, but I was shocked to hear what the issue actually was when he was initially told he was having a heart attack.
