Abstract

A case of post-mastectomy lymphangiosarcoma is reported. Lymphangiosarcoma is an extremely rare but highly lethal complication of chronic lymphoedema. Our patient was treated by amputation and died 6 months later. Treatment of post-mastectomy lymphangiosarcoma is still unsatisfactory. Early recognition and radical ablative surgery seem to provide best chance for survival.
