Abstract:
A cutaneous angiosarcoma is a rare, aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis, with only a few cases of it in head and neck have been reported. In the present case, we reported a primary angiosarcoma of the nasal dorsum in a 70-year-old man without prior irradiation of head and neck region. The authors reviewed the literature and discussed treatment and prognosis of cutaneous angiosarcoma in nasal dorsum.
