ABSTRACT
Breast angiosarcomas are rare mesenchymal
tumors of vascular endothelial origin, most commonly associated with radiation,
and less frequently primary. They are characterized by a distinct clinical and
radiological presentation, frequent local recurrence, and a poor prognosis. We
report the case of a young patient who presented with primary angiosarcoma in
both breasts, occurring a year apart. Subsequently, she developed bilateral
ovarian metastases, treated with surgery and radiotherapy for breast tumors,
and underwent palliative chemotherapy for ovarian metastases. Diagnostic
challenges were encountered in both radiological and pathological aspects.
Through this case, we discuss the clinical, radiological, and pathological
features of asynchronous bilateral primary angiosarcoma of the breast with
ovarian metastases.
