A case of metastatic intracranial angiosarcoma in a 17-year-old female is presented. The patient underwent a sternotomy for treatment of a primary angiosarcoma arising from the pericardium. The postoperative course was uneventful but the patient died as a result of multiple metastases. The metastatic intracranial tumor had features characteristic of angiosarcoma as revealed by light microscopy with positive immunohistochemical staining of factor VIII-related antigen. Only a few cases of intracranial metastasis from cardiac angiosarcoma have been reported in the literature.
