Abstract
Summary
1.
Two cases of lymphangiosarcoma occurring in an œdematous arm following radical mastectomy for carcinoma of the breast are described.
2.
The 35 previously reported cases are reviewed.
3.
Lymphœdema appears to be the only established aetiological agent.
4.
The diagnosis of this tumour may well be mistaken for that of a primary breast carcinoma; only an adequate biopsy can differentiate the two tumours.
5.
Radical radiotherapy or radical amputation is thought to be the best method of treatment.
