We present a very rare case of high-grade intimal sarcoma/cardiac pleomorphic sarcoma that was metastatic to the small bowel and presented with small bowel obstruction. Surgical resection was successfully performed of the intussuscepted portion of the small bowel segment followed by resection of the left atrial mass. The patient tolerated the procedure very well and is currently undergoing chemotherapy with doxorubicin/ifosfamide.
