Does the heart ever develop cancer?

659 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!

Yes. The only place that doesn’t develop cancer is the cornea of the eye. Basically, if it has blood flow and capillaries, it can develop cancer.
