ABSTRACT

Angiosarcoma (AS) is a type of malignancy within sarcomas affecting soft tissue and bone. It presents a very heterogeneous distribution in the human body, and it can appear in multiple locations, from breast to liver or skin. The incidence of this type of tumor is low; however, it is aggressive and requires an early diagnosis to initiate the treatment as soon as possible. In the present article, we report the case of a male patient who was diagnosed with epithelioid AS of popliteal artery after an aneurysm popliteal surgery, as well as its treatment and evolution. This kind of tumors has controversial treatment and poor survival rates in the early years.
