Complete Response of Radiation related Angiosarcoma of the Breast with CMF Chemotherapy

Abstract

Angiosarcoma of breast or chest wall is a rare recognized side effect in breast cancer survivors secondary to Adjuvant radiation. The treatment of angiosarcoma of the breast is carried out in number of ways. We would like to report the case of a 50-year old woman. She developed an angiosarcoma of the breast following adjuvant radiation to her conserved breast and was successfully treated with classical Cyclophosphamide, Methotrexate, and 5- fluorouracil (CMF) chemotherapy leading to a successful local surgical salvage.
