Abstract:
Angiosarcoma of the breast is an uncommon entity, and the development of cutaneous angiosarcoma of the breast after segmental mastectomy and irradiation therapy is even less common. We report a case of cutaneous angiosarcoma that developed 4 1/2 years after segmental mastectomy (lumpectomy) with axillary dissection and irradiation therapy for infiltrating ductal carcinoma of the breast.
