Why do you never hear about heart cancer?

Why is cancer of the heart not a thing? Can people even get heart cancer? What makes the heart different to other organs? A few people have asked me this question recently and it had been a while since I made a Minute Medicine video so figured this was a perfect opportunity. As usual this was shot during a quiet 5 minutes at work. Not always easy to find! But the on-call gods smiled at me yesterday.
