Abstrakt     The authors describe the case of a 72-year-old man, who presented two infiltrated and ulcerated plaques of the scalp and multiple angiomatous lesions on the face. The histological examination showed typically angulated and irregular spaces lined by cells which formed one or more layers and the typical bulging of the malignant endothelial cells into vascular lumens. A diagnosis of cutaneous angiosarcoma unassociated with lymphedema of the scalp and face was made. A multi-agent cytotoxic chemotherapy was employed as treatment strategy. The authors discuss the nosologic localization of angiosarcoma and underline the therapeutic modalities of this rare neoplasm.
