Abstract EN

Angiosarcoma of the urinary bladder is an extremely rare and poorly characterized tumor.

We are presenting the 13th reported patient who was an 89-year-old man initially presented with massive hematuria.

His past medical history included external-beam radiation for prostate cancer 12 years ago.

His PSA was 0.26 ng/dL.

His CT-Urography demonstrated a highly vascular mass originating from the bladder base.

The mass was partially resected, transurethrally.

The pathology was consistent with primary angiosarcoma of the urinary bladder.

Bone scan and CT-U showed metastasis to spine.

The patient was treated with palliative radiotherapy for back pain due to metastasis, and he refused chemotherapy.

The patient died 3 months after his initial diagnosis.
