A rare oral angiosarcoma presented with multiple reddish-blue skin lesions in a 60-year-old woman. This case highlights a unique clinical progression of this aggressive vascular tumor.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Dermatology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Angiosarcoma is a rare malignant vascular neoplasm.
  • Oral angiosarcoma is exceptionally uncommon.
  • Cutaneous angiosarcomas are more frequently reported than oral variants.

Observation:

  • A 60-year-old female presented with multiple, persistent (over 1 year) nodular and papular, reddish-blue lesions.
  • The oral lesion was noted to precede the development of cutaneous lesions.
  • Clinical presentation involved both oral mucosa and skin.

Findings:

  • Histopathological examination confirmed a malignant vascular tumor.
  • The findings were consistent with angiosarcoma.
  • The tumor exhibited characteristics of angiosarcoma.

Implications:

  • This case underscores the rarity of oral angiosarcoma.
  • The unique clinical behavior, with oral lesions preceding skin manifestations, offers new insights.
  • Early recognition and diagnosis are crucial for managing this aggressive malignancy.
