ABSTRACT
Cutaneous angiosarcorriias occur most commonly on the face and scalp of elderly individuals and are characterized by poor prognosis. We present a case of angiosarcoma in a 17-year-old boy not associated with any predisposing factors. The patient had three, ill-defined, 3 to 5 cm sized, erythematous, indurated subcutaneous nodules on the right upper extremity with a duration of 3 months. On histological examination, there were extravasated erythrocytes and irregular vascular channels lined by atypical endothelial cells in the dermis and subcutaneous tissue. The tumor cells appeared to dissect the collagen bundles. The patient was treated by wide surgical excision and post operative radiation therapy. However, 16 months after the operation, local recurrence was found to involve the close areas to the excision site on the right upper extremity and right axillary lymph nodes.
