Gan to Kagaku Ryoho. Cancer & Chemotherapy 2017 November
We report a case of angiosarcoma of the breast following breast-conserving surgerywith radiotherapyfor breast cancer. The patient was 82-year-old woman, developed induration and eruption in the bilateral breast more than 8 years after the initial operation for breast cancer. The induration was diagnosed as angiosarcoma based on skin-biopsyand vacuum-assisted biopsy. The patient received simple mastectomy, and has been become recurrent condition about one month after simple mastectomy. We operated partial excision for recurrence tumor. She is still alive after rearly 1 year of past operation. There are no established therapies for angiosarcoma of the breast following breast-conserving surgerywith radiotherapyfor breast cancer. Although radiotherapy-induced sarcoma is rare, earlydetection of the tumor in the irradiation area is important, as radiotherapyis often performed for the breast cancer patients. This interesting case of angiosarcoma of the breast after breast-conserving surgeryfor breast cancer is reported.
