case_images: On physical examination, the patient had two pinkish-violaceous lesions in the right breast, one that was mildly erythematous and almost imperceptible at the junction of the upper quadrants (UQJ) and another more intensely violet lesion at the junction of the lower quadrants (LQJ) measuring 0.5cm ( Figure 1 ).

case_images: Anatomic pathological report of the resected specimens showed a well-differentiated angiosarcoma (G1), a neoplasm characterized by anastomosing vascular ducts lined by atypical endothelial cells characterized by hyperchromatism and anisocariosis, sometimes containing red blood cells, arranged in an infiltrative growth pattern, permeating the mammary parenchyma and dermis ( Figure 2 ) at the UQJ measuring 1.9x1.4cm, and at the LQJ a neoplasm restricted to the dermis, measuring 1.1x0.5cm ( Figure 3 ).Immunohistochemical revealed positivity for the expression of cluster of differentiation 31 (CD31) and oncogene
