Angiosarcoma of the thoracoabdominal aorta presenting with systemic hypertension, anemia, and visceral ischemia.

Aortic angiosarcomas, one of the three major types of primary aortic tumors, are exceedingly rare, with only 25 cases reported in the literature. Peripheral thromboembolic complications are the most frequently described presenting feature, and therefore, these tumors can be mistaken for aortoiliac occlusive disease. We describe a rare case of an extensive thoracoabdominal angiosarcoma that manifested with hypertension, profound anemia, and visceral ischemia in a young woman.
