Aortic angiosarcoma masquerading as a thoracic aortic aneurysm: A case report and literature
Journal of Vascular Surgery, 08/27/09
Ramjee V et al. – The authors report a case of aortic angiosarcoma masquerading as a descending thoracic aneurysm arising from a penetrating ulcer. The patient was initially treated with an endovascular stent graft for rapid growth, but the lesion continued to enlarge despite angiographic exclusion. FDG–PET CT scan and biopsy ultimately confirmed the diagnosis of aortic angiosarcoma. This case highlights some of the difficulties of making the early diagnosis of aortic angiosarcoma.
