Angiosarcoma complicating systemic sclerosis: a case report.

Cutaneous angiosarcoma is a rare malignant vascular tumor with a poor prognosis, most commonly affecting elderly white men. Diagnosis usually is delayed because the tumor has a highly variable and often innocuous presentation. Cutaneous angiosarcoma has been associated with a number of conditions and factors, including chronic lymphedema, prior radiation therapy, exposure to chemicals, and vascular malformations.
