ABSTRACT
Angiosarcoma is a rare malignant tumor of soft tissue in adults. However, tumor ulcers caused by foot angiosarcoma are rarely reported in the literature. This paper outlines a case of foot angiosarcoma misdiagnosed as diabetic foot ulcer. It was treated as diabetic foot ulcer in other hospitals without notable improvement. In consideration of its special clinical characteristics and treatment process, pathological biopsy was performed after admission, and angiosarcoma was confirmed. The purpose of this article is to emphasize that foot angiosarcoma or other tumor ulcers in diabetes patients are easily misdiagnosed as diabetic foot ulcers. If there is no obvious improvement in treatment, pathological tissue biopsy should be performed as early as possible.
