Epithelioid angiosarcoma is an aggressive form of angiosarcoma, and primary colonic tumors are extremely rare. We present the case of a 60-year-old man who presented with what initially appeared to be postpolypectomy bleeding. After undergoing repeat endoscopy, he was found to have epithelioid angiosarcoma of the transverse colon, and imaging further confirmed that it was the primary tumor site. Our patient underwent segmental resection of his transverse colon. The patient's initial presentation as postpolypectomy bleeding and his continued cancer-free survival after a relatively limited surgery are unique features not previously seen.
上皮样血管肉瘤是血管肉瘤的一种侵袭性形式,原发性结肠肿瘤极为罕见。我们报告了一例60岁男性病例,该患者最初表现为息肉切除术后出血。在接受重复内镜检查后,发现他患有横结肠上皮样血管肉瘤,影像学检查进一步证实该部位为原发性肿瘤部位。我们的患者接受了横结肠节段性切除术。该患者最初表现为息肉切除术后出血,以及在相对有限的手术后持续无癌生存,这些都是以前未曾见过的独特特征。
