This is an open access article under the CC BY-NC-ND license (http:// creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/)Introduction: Pancreas angiosarcoma is a very aggressive malignant neoplasm. The symptoms are nonspecific and it is usually diagnosed at an advanced stage, which confers a poor prognosis. Presentation of case: We present a 56-year-old woman with abdominal epigastric pain and nausea. The abdominal CT-scan showed a 7 cm mass within the head of the pancreas and the pathology and immunochemistry analysis were positive for pancreas angiosarcoma. Intra-operatively the tumor was irresectable. Discussion: Pancreas angiosarcoma is an extremely rare neoplasm with non-specific diagnosis. The histology has a wide range of presentations and immunohistochemistry is required. The surgery appears to be the only effective treatment. Conclusion: We report the seventh case of pancreas angiosarcoma in the English literature. Despite it's irresectability, the patient was asymptomatic two months after surgery, initiating chemotherapy with paclitaxel, with good tolerance.ElsevierRepositório da Universidade de LisboaFaria, AldaraAlpoim Lopes, FilipeFigueira, AlbertoMiranda, CarlosCoutinho, Joao2021-12-02T17:53:27Z20202020-01-01T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10451/50259engInternational journal of surgery case reports, 76, 116-12010.1016/j.ijscr.2020.09.1312210-2612info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-11-08T16:54:20Zoai:repositorio.ul.pt:10451/50259Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T22:01:44.880661Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
