Abstract

One case of angiosarcoma of the right breast and concomitant controlateral carcinoma in a fifty nine year old woman is described. Clinical and pathological particularities of this case are shortly discussed. In spite of very poor reputation associated with angiosarcoma, size of the two lesions (less than 2 cm) and their good differentiation suggests a favourable prognosis.
