Abstract
Primary angiosarcoma of the breast is a rare entity, accounting for less than 0.1% of breast malignancies, with potential life-threatening outcomes. Diagnosis of angiosarcoma can be difficult due to its variable and unpredictable clinical, radiological, and pathological presentation. Primary angiosarcoma occurs predominantly in younger populations with no previous risk factors; in contrast, secondary angiosarcoma occurs predominantly in the elderly with a previous of radiation exposure. We describe the case of a 50-year-old female presenting with a large, advanced breast tumour diagnosed as primary angiosarcoma.
