Hemangiopericytoma (HPC) may develop in every site where the endothelial tissue exits and primarily develops in the skeletal-muscular system or the skin. Adult cases of HPC generally exhibit a benign course. 20–30% of the cases may show a malign course. The tumors that show more than four mitoses, a focal area of necrosis, and increased cellularity on a magnification ×10 are considered as malign. In our paper, we presented our case who showed a lung metastasis at the end of 4 years and who developed a pathological fracture of the right humerus at the end of approximately 2 years, because hemangiopericytoma is rarely seen in the chest wall as a primary tumor.

“…For HPC, the first therapeutic option is surgery. However, as HPC is potentially malign, both chemotherapy and radiotherapy should be considered for the treatment [2, 11]. Although the most common metastasis site is lung, metastasis of intestine, eyes, and lymph nodes were also reported.…”

Background: Hepatic angiosarcomas are rare tumors most often associated with exposure to vinyl chloride or other carcinogens. Only a few cases have been published without such a history. Case Report: We report the case of a 73-year-old woman who was admitted to our medical department with unclear upper abdominal pain, thrombocytopenia and anemia. Both computed tomography and magnet resonance imaging revealed a giant hemangioma in the right liver with multiple small hemangiomas. To cure the problem of thrombocytopenia due to sequestration of blood cells in the hemangioma, we decided to resect the large tumor. Intraoperatively, however, the diagnosis of angiosarcoma with multiple metastases was made. The patient died 6 weeks after surgery. Conclusion: Problems in diagnosing angiosarcoma include the brief duration of antecedent symptoms, difficulties in radiological diagnosis, and patients without a history of professional exposure to carcinogens.

Bei einem 57jahrigen Patienten wurde ein histologisch und immunhistochemisch gesichertes, unreifes, kutanes Angiosarkom an der rechten Stirn exzidiert. Das multizentrische Wachstum des Tumors erforderte eine dreidimensionale Schnittrandkontrolle mittels Mikrografie. Zwei Nachexzisionen waren aufgrund von Tumorzellproliferationen im Bereich der Schnittrander notwendig. Die Kontrolle der Radikalitat des operativen Vorgehens durch die Mikrografie ist Voraussetzung zur Verbesserung der ernsten Prognose. H. Winter et al. (eds.
