Liver neoplasms, whether they are benign or malignant, are usually fed by the hepatic artery. We experienced a case of hepatic angiosarcoma supplied by both hepatic artery and portal vein. Since there are currently no specific laboratory tests to diagnose hepatic angiosarcoma, it is important to detect suspect cases from imaging features. This unique hemodynamic property was detected on compute...

Primary angiosarcoma of bone is very rare. It occurs more commonly in middle-age and later life, with a male predominance in the ratio of 2:1. Angiosarcoma of bone has a tendency to involve the long tubular bones, and multifocal involvement is common. Here, we present a case of a 69-yr-old man in Shahid Sadooghi Hospital of Yazd in 2014 that had angiosarcoma of the left tibia. He was treated wi...

This is a case report of a 20-year-old woman who had primary angiosarcoma of the left breast, with metastases to the spleen and ovary. Eight months after detecting a mass in her breast, she underwent mastectomy with biopsy of the ipsilateral axillary lymph nodes, splenectomy and bilateral oophorectomy. Five months after the operation, the patient succumbed to lung metastases. Angiosarcoma of th...

Cardiac angiosarcoma is a rare tumour with very poor prognosis especially in patients with metastatic disease. We present the case of a 43 year old patient with angiosarcoma revealed by open lung biopsy for multiple pulmonary metastases. Cardiac symptoms were limited to a moderate pericarditis and no echocardiographic sign of heart tumour was observed. The clinical outcome was rapidly fatal des...

Arteriovenous fistula (AVF) is the best permanent access for hemodialysis. Swelling and pain due to thrombosis and infection is common at fistula site. Angiosarcoma is one of rare but important differential diagnosis of these signs. We present a patient on CAPD with angiosarcoma at AVF.

Angiosarcoma of the heart is a rare tumor with very poor prognosis especially in patients with multiple metastases. We present a case of a 39year-old woman with angiosarcoma of the heart metastasing to the right side of the mandible, a situation not often found previously in the literature.

this paper presents the case of a 35 year-old woman with symptoms of heart failure from the last month. a physical examination at admission showed paleness, dyspnea, peripheral edema and fatigue. in a two-dimensional echocardiography and transesophageal echocardiography, normal thickness but severe left and right ventricular dysfunction with severe pericardial effusion and thickened pericardium...

a 22-year-old man presented with exertional dyspnea commencing one month prior to his admission. echocardiography revealed a non-homogenous mass, and the pathology examination of the pericardial biopsy was compatible with angiosarcoma.

Angiosarcoma (AS) is an aggressive vascular malignancy that can affect various anatomic sites. Although rare, cutaneous angiosarcoma (CAS) the most common clinical manifestation of AS, accounting for approximately 50% to 60% all AS. CAS typically known occur in three settings: (1) idiopathic, (2) following radiation treatment, or (3) classically diagnosed mastectomy with subsequent chronic lymp...

INTRODUCTION Liver angiosarcoma is a very uncommon tumour of mesenchymal origin, representing between 0.1-2% of all primary tumours of the liver, affecting mainly men in their sixth or seventh decade of life, with a high mortality in the first years (Chaudhary et al., 2015). Literature reports of its surgical treatment vary from a total or partial hepatectomy with or without liver transplant. ...
