^, solitary fibrous tumor is generally not included under the category of “sarcoma” but is included here due to its frequent occurrence and potential for aggressive/malignant behavior. *, the majority of angiosarcomas of the mediastinum have been reported in studies in which cardiac tumors were included, primary mediastinal angiosarcoma not associated with cardiac tissue is exceedingly rare.
