Abstract

Primary malignant tumors of the aorta (PMTAs) are not only extremely rare, but also exhibit enormous histological heterogeneity. We present the first recorded case of a female patient with intimal angiosarcoma of the aortic arch and descending thoracic aorta in China, along with the clinical presentation, histopathologic diagnosis, and surgical excision of the lesion. We propose surgery as a viable curative approach to angiosarcomas of intimal origin. J Curr Surg. 2017;7(4):64-68 doi: https://doi.org/10.14740/jcs332w
