What is it about?
Primary angiosarcoma (SA) of the breast is a rare neoplasia unrelated to radiation exposure. It represents less than 0.05% of all malignant tumors of the breast. This lesion is characterized by aggressive patterns and a poor prognosis, and by the absence of typical features on radiological examination.

Why is it important?
Currently, there are no evidence-based guidelines for surgical and adjuvant treatment for this tumor, although wide surgical resection followed by chemotherapy appears to improve disease-free and overall survival.
Perspectives
