Advances in angiomatosis of breast with vertical infiltration / 医学研究生学报

ABSTRACT

Angiomatosis is a benign tumor of mesenchymal origin that can vertically infiltrate adjacent tissues. Most reported cases of angiomatosis were in the head and neck, internal organs and tissues, limb muscles, bones, etc.. However, there were only a few cases of breast angiomatosis reported in China. Angioangiosis is rare with high local recurrence rate. Clinical manifestations and pathological diagnosis are easy to be confused with other breast diseases, therefore easy to be misdiagnosed and mistreated. The current study reviewed relevant literature on angiotomasis. Clinical manifestations, auxiliary examinations, pathology, etc. of breast angiomatosis were introduced along with other disease that need to be differentially diagnosis from. In this paper, current progress of diagnosis, treatment, recurrence related risk factors of angiomatosis were summarized, in the hope of improving the clinicians’ understanding and provide basis for further diagnosis and treatment.
