| Core Tip |
Angiosarcoma is rare and carries a poor prognosis, often presenting subtly both clinically and radiologically. In some cases, it manifests only as persistent unexplained anemia, making early recognition difficult. The tumor may remain hidden, mimicking benign lesions, with symptoms masked or altered by concurrent treatments. In patients receiving tyrosine kinase inhibitors, such as for chronic myeloid leukemia, modulation of the vascular endothelial growth factor pathway and related mechanisms can further obscure tumor behavior and distort imaging findings, contributing to diagnostic delay. |
