The histological examination showed typically angulated and irregular spaces lined by cells which formed one or more layers and the typical bulging of the malignant endothelial cells into vascular lumens. A diagnosis of cutaneous angiosarcoma unassociated with lymphedema of the scalp and face was made. A multi-agent cytotoxic chemotherapy was employed as treatment strategy. The authors discuss the nosologic localization of angiosarcoma and underline the therapeutic modalities of this rare neoplasmTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaZdruženje slovenskih dermatovenerologov
