Angiosarcoma of the gastrointestinal tract is a very rare malignancy with only a few cases reported in the literature. The case of a 60-year-old woman who presented with abdominal pain and a sigmoid mass on computed tomography (CT) scan is reported. Upon exploration, the patient was found to have a subserosal hemorrhagic mass. Angiosarcoma of the sigmoid colon was diagnosed upon pathological examination. The patient developed subsequent recurrence of her disease with distant metastasis. Approximately 4 months later, she expired. Angiosarcoma of the gastrointestinal tract is a very aggressive malignant tumor. The primary treatment is surgical excision. The role of adjuvant therapy is not well established.
胃肠道血管肉瘤是一种非常罕见的恶性肿瘤,文献中仅有少数病例报道。本文报告了一例60岁女性患者,她因腹痛就诊,计算机断层扫描(CT)显示乙状结肠有肿物。经探查,发现患者有浆膜下出血性肿物。病理检查确诊为乙状结肠血管肉瘤。该患者随后疾病复发并出现远处转移。大约4个月后,患者死亡。胃肠道血管肉瘤是一种侵袭性很强的恶性肿瘤。主要治疗方法是手术切除。辅助治疗的作用尚未明确。
