Abstract
Primary angiosarcoma of the esophagus is an extremely rare soft-tissue tumor with no previously documented cases in the MEDLINE and EMBASE databases as of April 2012. We report a case of primary esophageal angiosarcoma in an otherwise healthy 77-year-old woman presenting with odynophagia and epigastric discomfort.
