Angiosarcoma of the breast is a very rare conjunctive tumor. It is a primitive malignant proliferation of the endothelial cells of the vascular tissue of the gland. It occurs in both a primary form without a known precursor, and a secondary form that has been associated to a history of irradiated breast tissue. Both forms have a malignant behavior and a poor prognosis. We report a case of breast angiosarcoma diagnosed by histology and treatment consisting of a mastectomy supplemented by chemotherapy and radiotherapy.
Mammary tuberculosis is a rare disease even in endemic countries, accounts for 0.07℅ of all tuberculous sites and 0.025℅ to 4.5℅ of all breast tumor diseases. There is renewed interest in the spread of AIDS in developed countries. We report three cases of mammary tuberculosis, the diagnosis of which could only be based on the histology seen in the multiplicity and non-specificity of its clinical and radiological aspects.
