Angiosarcoma of Large Intestine: A Case Report
Journal Title: Cardiology and Angiology: An International Journal - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Angiosarcomas are collectively one of the rare forms of soft tissue neoplasms. That of the large intestine is much rarer. We report a case of large intestinal angiosarcoma. This is a case of a 30-year-old man who presented with intestinal obstruction, and after resection, it was histologically diagnosed as Angiosarcoma of large bowel.
