Abstract
We present the case of a 52-year-old woman with a history of cervical cancer who underwent 26 radiotherapy sessions, with a 7-month history of evolution, characterized by lesions in the pelvis, abdomen and legs, associated with symptoms gastrointestinal. A biopsy was performed, which showed multiple atypical mitotic figures, in addition to permeation vascular and immunohistochemistry positive for CD20 and CDX2, confirming the diagnosis of telangiectatic carcinoma, with fatal outcome 2 months after diagnosis.
