Pulmonary angiosarcomas are usually secondary tumors, and only a few primary cases have been reported. We report a unique case of epithelioid angiosarcoma presenting as a solitary mass in the right upper lobe with pulmonary hemorrhage. Because of its epithelioid histology, this tumor may resemble a carcinoma or a variety of vascular lesions with epithelioid endothelial cells. Therefore, the diagnosis of epithelioid angiosarcoma should be based on immunohistochemical staining.

“…Although soft tissues sarcomas represent only about 1% of all malignant tumors 1, their overall prognosis is fairly dismal. Tissue heterogeneity accounts for considerable variation in patient survival, with few very long‐term survivors being reported, and an overall median survival of 7% at 3 years, when pulmonary metastases are detected 2–5. The differences in biologic behavior are attributable to variations in histologic typing and sites of origin 5.…”
