Fine needle aspiration cytology of breast angiosarcoma is characterized by a strong bleeding background, vacuolar structures, and atypical cells, which can be further evaluated using CD34 immunostaining on cell blocks.
尚子 et al. (2014) conducted a case report in Breast angiosarcoma (n=1). Fine needle aspiration biopsy was evaluated on Cytomorphologic features. Fine needle aspiration biopsy of a mammary mass revealed single atypical cells, paired cells, and vasoformative vacuoles with endothelial-like cells, indicating mammary angiosarcoma.
