Lymphangiosarcoma arising in a congenitally lymphoedematous arm: case report.

A malignant endothelial tumour arising in a congenitally lymphoedematous extremity is a sufficiently rare tumour to deserve the reporting of a new case. This tumour presented as small nodules on the back of the hand and in spite of midhumeral amputation widely scattered pulmonary metastases were present at the autopsy 28 months after the original presentation.

[Stewart-Treves syndrome--lymphangiosarcoma in sever lymphostasis of arm after mastectomy].

Stewart-Treves Syndrome ('STS) is a rare, extremely malignant and quickly progressing tumor. It is angiosarcoma developing in lymphostasis of an arm after radical mastectomy for cancer. The patient aged 80 years was followed-up, in whom STS had developed 19 years after radical mastectomy. Clinical diagnosis was confirmed by pathomorphological examination of dermal biopsy. Advanced age and severe associated diseases made it impossible to carry out specific therapy. The patient died of intoxication and increasing cardio-vascular insufficiency 9 months after the onset of the disease.
