Colonic angiosarcoma is a rare malignancy representing only 0.0012% of all colorectal malignancies. Due to its non-specific symptoms, diagnosis is often delayed. However, because of the aggressive nature of this malignancy, it is important to keep it in the differential diagnosis of rectal bleeding, pelvic discomfort, chronic diarrhea, and weight loss in patients with risk factors. We present a case of angiosarcoma of the colon in a 74-year-old female with a remote history of chemo-radiation for anal squamous cell carcinoma (ASCC).
结肠血管肉瘤是一种罕见的恶性肿瘤，仅占所有结直肠恶性肿瘤的0.0012%。由于其症状不具有特异性，诊断往往会延迟。然而，鉴于这种恶性肿瘤的侵袭性，对于有危险因素的患者，在出现直肠出血、盆腔不适、慢性腹泻和体重减轻等症状时，将其纳入鉴别诊断很重要。我们报告一例74岁女性结肠血管肉瘤病例，该患者有肛管鳞状细胞癌（ASCC）的放化疗史。
