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.
