We present a case of primary angiosarcoma, an exceedingly rare malignant breast lesion, in a 21-year-old female patient with unilateral breast enlargement. Primary angiosarcoma is an aggressive form of breast cancer with variable presentation and limited clinical experience due to the rarity of the disease. Despite an initial diagnostic challenge, this report showcases the importance of a systematic diagnostic approach and multidisciplinary management in the context of uncommon breast lesions in young patients. Our patient underwent a mastectomy followed by breast reconstruction, achieving favourable cosmetic outcomes. This case serves as a contribution to our understanding of the diagnostic considerations surrounding angiosarcoma of the breast in a young patient.
我们报告一例原发性血管肉瘤,这是一种极为罕见的乳腺恶性病变,患者为一名21岁女性,单侧乳房肿大。原发性血管肉瘤是一种侵袭性乳腺癌,表现多样,且由于该病罕见,临床经验有限。尽管最初诊断存在挑战,但本报告展示了在年轻患者罕见乳腺病变的情况下,系统诊断方法和多学科管理的重要性。我们的患者接受了乳房切除术,随后进行了乳房重建,获得了良好的美容效果。该病例有助于我们了解年轻患者乳腺血管肉瘤的诊断要点。
