Abstract
Secondary angiosarcoma of the breast following radiotherapy though rare is a well recognised entity. The estimated incidence of developing radiation associated angiosarcoma after breast conserving surgery ranges from 0.9% to 1.6% [1, 2]. We report an 80 year old female with a metastatic lesion in the skin donor site secondary to radiation associated angiosarcoma. To our knowledge, this is the first case to be reported of a patient with metastatic lesion in the skin graft donor site secondary to radiation associated cutaneous angiosarcoma, possibly due to koebner phenomenon. A possible pathological basis for the sequence of events is discussed.
