ABSTRACT
We have experienced a case of angiosarcoma of the chest wall in a patient with fibrous dysplasia. The patient was a 64-year-old man and had large bilateral thoracic masses. Each tumor, resected metachronously with the chest wall, was diagnosed as angiosarcoma. One of these tumors had a histological component of fibrous dysplasia. The patient died from brain metastasis 19 months after the first operation. Angiosarcoma associated with fibrous dysplasia of the chest wall is very rare.
