Abstrakt:	Introduction and Importance: Angiosarcoma of the breast is a rare malignant tumour of endothelial origin. It is characterised by a high degree of malignancy and a polymorphous clinical and radiological presentation, a source of diagnostic error and delay. It has a very poor prognosis. Mammary angiosarcoma is a rare but formidable complication of radiotherapy. The specificity of this observation is that we are presenting two clinical cases of different surgical management of breast cancer who suffered the same complication from radiotherapy. Case Presentation: We report two cases of Radiotherapy-induced angiosarcoma (RIAS) in two patients with a history of breast cancer one treated by conservative surgery and radiotherapy and the other by radical surgery and radiotherapy both patients were operated. Clinical Discussion: Radiotherapy-induced angiosarcoma (RIAS) is a rare complication of radiotherapy. The increasing use of conservative treatment of breast cancer, which combines surgery with radiotherapy and chemotherapy, can rarely be complicated by breast sarcoma. Conclusion: The natural history of radiation-induced angiosarcoma is more or less rapid, with death occurring in the setting of metastatic spread after a median survival of 24 months. The quality of the surgical procedure is a prognostic factor. Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare having no conflicts of interest for this article.
