Primary angiosarcoma of the breast: Case report of a rare vascular tumor

This is a case report of a woman in her sixth decade of life diagnosed with primary angiosarcoma of the breast using mammography and ultrasound, confirmed with imaging-guided biopsy, and finally treated with surgery and radiation. Imaging studies obtained and discussed include mammography, ultrasonography, and MRI. Further discussion on the presenting symptoms, useful imaging modalities, and treatment options takes place. It is important to consider primary angiosarcoma of the breast, though rare, in any woman presenting with a palpable breast mass and, if feasible, an MRI will be most helpful in the diagnosis of this rare tumor.
