Abstract

Epithelioid angiosarcoma is an aggressive form of angiosarcoma, and primary colonic tumors are extremely rare. We present the case of a 60-year-old man who presented with what initially appeared to be postpolypectomy bleeding. After undergoing repeat endoscopy, he was found to have epithelioid angiosarcoma of the transverse colon, and imaging further confirmed that it was the primary tumor site. Our patient underwent segmental resection of his transverse colon. The patient's initial presentation as postpolypectomy bleeding and his continued cancer-free survival after a relatively limited surgery are unique features not previously seen.

切除术后出血出错：原发性结肠上皮样血管肉瘤。

上皮样血管肉瘤是一种侵袭性血管肉瘤，原发性结肠肿瘤极为罕见。我们介绍了一例 60 岁男性的病例，他最初看起来像是息肉切除术后出血。在再次接受内镜检查后，他被发现患有横结肠上皮样血管肉瘤，影像学检查进一步证实这是原发肿瘤部位。我们的患者接受了横结肠分段切除术。患者最初表现为息肉切除术后出血，并且在相对有限的手术后继续无癌生存，这是以前从未见过的独特特征。
