Key result
Paclitaxel clears ~90% of pulmonary lesions in a case of epithelioid angiosarcoma.
Why the study?
Epithelioid angiosarcoma is a rare, aggressive vascular malignancy that typically affects older males; this case illustrates an atypical presentation in a younger female without known risk factors.
Case Report (n=1)
This case highlights the diagnostic challenges of epithelioid angiosarcoma and demonstrates a significant imaging response to paclitaxel in a patient with an atypical presentation.

Adrenal EA case with lung mets underscores diagnostic vigilance in atypical masses; leaves open evidence-based management for this rare entity.
Dahab et al. (2026) conducted a case report in Epithelioid Angiosarcoma (n=1). Paclitaxel was evaluated. Treatment with paclitaxel in a 48-year-old female with epithelioid angiosarcoma resulted in approximately 90% resolution of pulmonary lesions.
