Spinal epithelioid angiosarcoma: a diagnostically and therapeutically challenging entity treated with chemoradiotherapy.
Primary spinal angiosarcoma is extremely rare with few reported cases globally. While en bloc resection is the only definitive and curative treatment modality, this case highlights the potential for curative-intent, non-surgical management of spinal epithelioid angiosarcoma using taxane-based chemoradiotherapy, especially in anatomically challenging and surgically unresectable locations. It also emphasises the role of multimodal imaging and histopathological correlation in the diagnosis and monitoring of rare spinal tumours.
