Radiation-induced angiosarcoma of the breast: retrospective analysis at a regional treatment centre
CONCLUSION: RIA has high rates of recurrence and mortality and appears to be occurring sooner after breast radiotherapy. Further studies on its pathogenesis and effective treatment are warranted.PMID:38147173 | DOI:10.1007/s12282-023-01535-5 (Source: Breast Cancer)

Surgically Resected Cardiac Angiosarcoma: Survival Analysis from the National Cancer Database
J Clin Med. 2023 Dec 18;12(24):7764. doi: 10.3390/jcm12247764.ABSTRACTAngiosarcoma is a rare type of soft-tissue sarcoma arising from endothelial cells. It is considered 'high-grade' by definition, reflecting its aggressive behavior. We sought to investigate the role of surgery in cardiac angiosarcoma, identify late mortality predictors, and identify interactions with other modalities in its treatment using a national dataset. The 2004-2017 National Cancer Database was reviewed for patients with primary cardiac angiosarcoma. Late mortality predictors were evaluated with Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox regression analysis. Surg...

Hemangiosarcoma in dogs as a potential non-rodent animal model for drug discovery research of angiosarcoma in humans
Since the domestication of dogs 10,000 years ago, they have shared their living environment with humans and have co-evolved. The breeding process that dogs have undergone in only a few centuries has led to a significant accumulation of specific genetic alterations that could induce particular diseases in certain breeds. These canine diseases are similar to what is found in humans with several differences; therefore, comparing such diseases occurring in humans and dogs can help discover novel disease mechanisms, pathways, and causal genetic factors. Human angiosarcoma (AS) and canine hemangiosarcoma (HSA), which are sarcoma...

Cutaneous angiosarcoma & #8211; Mimicking giant condyloma acuminata with molluscum-like satellite lesions
Soumyaa Gulati, Harsha Gangadhar, Suravi Mohanty, P Shilpashree, Divya GuptaIndian Journal of Sexually Transmitted Diseases and AIDS 2023 44(2):165-167Angiosarcoma (AS) is a rare malignant tumor of vascular or lymphatic epithelium, typically presenting as a bruise-like patch over the face or scalp in the seventh–ninth decades. Here, we report a case of cutaneous AS (cAS) in a 51-year-old male patient who presented with a cauliflower-like growth in the groin with skin-colored shiny flat-topped satellite papules in the surrounding areas, some of which were umbilicated. Based on examination, the patient was consi...
