Abstract
We report two patients with angiosarcoma of the skin, a rare tumour in Queensiand. Both presented on the face of elderly people; both were misdiagnosed as the more common skin cancers: basal cell carcinoma in one instance, and squamous cell carcinoma in the other. Frozen section histological examination diagnosis presented difficulty in both patients. Both tumours invaded very deeply requiring wide resection and reconstruction. One metastasised to the lungs, the other to the regional nodes.
