Abstract
A case report of a 61-year-old woman who developed a uterine angiosarcoma 6.5 years after primary radiotherapy for a moderately well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix stage IB is presented. The diagnosis was confirmed by immunohistochemical studies showing positive staining for Ulex europaeus agglutinin 1 and supported by ultrastructural studies. Though various post-irradiation angiosarcomas are reported in the literature, this is, to our knowledge, the first report of an angiosarcoma of the uterus after radiotherapy.Entities:
