Abstract
After conservative treatment of breast carcinoma (quadrantectomy and a xillary dissection, plus radiotherapy), the growth of an angiosarcoma in the irradiated skin is a very rare event, We report a case, develop ed in the breast skin 62 months after the irradiation, and discuss the therapeutic possibilities and the role of follow-up in these patients .
