Abstract
Sarcomatous lesions of the kidney comprise less than 2% of all primary renal malignancies. Angiosarcomas are an exquisitely infrequent histo logic type in this setting and are associated with a universally poor prognosis, We report the eighth known case of primary renal angiosarco ma and review the available literature on this rare entity.
