Angiosarcoma of the breast constitutes 1 % of all soft tissue tumour of the breast and primary angiosarcoma is an extremely rare entity with an incidence of 0.05% of all the breast tumour. We report a case of primary angiosarcoma of the breast in a 57 year old woman, with no previous radiotherapy and is treated with breast conservative surgery.
