Abstract

Secondary hemangiosarcomas are a rare malignancy that can develop in breast tissue that has undergone prior radiation therapy. Post-irradiation hemangiosarcomas (PIHs) have been frequently described in the literature, although, to the best of our knowledge, the imaging findings of locally recurred PIHs have not been previously reported. We present imaging findings of a case of a locally recurring secondary hemangiosarcoma in the context of prior breast conservation surgery and radiation.

속발성 혈관육종은 방사선 요법을 받은 유방조직에 발생할 수 있는 드문 악성 종양이다. 방사선 조사 후 혈관육종은 기존 문헌에 보고되고 있지만, 국소 재발한 방사선 조사 후 혈관육종의 영상 소견을 다룬 보고는 없었다. 우리는 이전에 유방 보존성 수술 및 방사선 요법을 시행한 환자에서 발생한 속발성 혈관육종의 국소 재발 증례를 영상의학적 소견과 함께 보고하고자 한다.
