ABSTRACT

Angiosarcomas rarely involve the female genital tract. There have only been sporadic case reports of angiosarcomas of the cervix, uterus, vagina, parametrium, broad ligament and pelvis, and only 11 well-documented case reports of primary ovarian angiosarcoma in the English language literature to date. We present a case of primary pure ovarian angiosarcoma with lung metastasis that had partial response after chemotherapy with adriamycin and ifosfamide. But pulmonary hemorrhage and respiratory failure resulted in her death 7 months after initial diagnosis.
