Angiosarcoma of
breast or chest wall is a rare recognized side effect in breast cancer
survivors secondary to Adjuvant radiation. The treatment of angiosarcoma of the
breast is carried out in number of ways.
We would like to
report the case of a 50-year old woman. She developed an angiosarcoma of
the breast following adjuvant radiation to her conserved
breast and was successfully treated with classical Cyclophosphamide.
Methotrexate, and
5- fluorouracil (CMF) chemotherapy leading to a successful local surgical
salvage.
