title: Angiosarcoma in an area of lipodermatosclerosis.
abstract: We present an unusual case in a post phlebitic lower limb that had previously developed an area of lipodermatosclerosis. An area within this broke down as a result of an angiosarcoma rather than the more probable: formation of a venous ulcer.
