Primary angiosarcoma of the breast (about two cases)

Primary angiosarcoma (AS) of the breast is a rare neoplasia that is not related to radiation exposure. It represents less
than 0.05% of all malignant breast tumors. We report two cases of primary angiosarcoma of the breast. The first patient
was a 33- year-old woman with a highly vascular mass in her right breast which is suggestive of malignancy at radiology.
Initial core needle biopsy showed a benign hemangioma. The patient underwent a mastectomy. The tumor histology showed
an angiosarcoma grade III. The patient is now receiving chemotherapy. She is still alive. The second patient was 19 year old
women with a large and fast growing mass of her right breast which is no specific at radiology. Surgical biopsy showed a
well differeciated angiosarcoma. She underwent a mastectomy and after that she received chemotherapy and died within 2
years. This tumor is exceedingly rare, characterized by aggressive patterns and poor prognosis and by the absence of typical
features at radiologic examination. His prognosis is usually poor because of the high rates of local recurrence and early
development of metastasis. Surgical removal followed by adjuvant chemotherapy seems to improve the prognosis. We report
these two cases in the aim of avoiding the common trap of a benign differential diagnosis, and achieving a better definition
of the treatment of this cancer.
