Angiosarcoma is a malignant endothelial cell tumor that involves a variety of anatomic sites with the skin being the most common. Cutaneous angiosarcoma is a diagnostic challenge as it can be confused with lesions such as rosacea, hemangiomas and hematomas. Since the tumor has a propensity for early metastasis and extensive intradermal spread, early diagnostic intervention via punch biopsy may prevent delays in diagnosis and improve tumor resectability and prognosis. We present a case of cutaneous angiosarcoma on the nose and cheeks of a 75-year-old male that resembled rosacea.
血管肉瘤是一种恶性内皮细胞肿瘤，可累及多种解剖部位，其中皮肤最为常见。皮肤血管肉瘤的诊断具有挑战性，因为它可能与酒渣鼻、血管瘤和血肿等病变相混淆。由于该肿瘤易于早期转移和广泛的真皮内扩散，通过钻孔活检进行早期诊断干预可防止诊断延误，并改善肿瘤的可切除性和预后。我们报告一例75岁男性鼻和脸颊部皮肤血管肉瘤，其临床表现类似酒渣鼻。
