Primary hepatic angiosarcoma, which is malignant tumor originated from endothelial cell of vessel, is rare condition and is found at only one of fifty thousand autopsy cases. Six cases of hepatic angiosarcoma have been reported in Korea. Two of them were thought as be metastasized from spleen and other four were primary. In spite of foreign reports that lung and spleen is frequent metastatic sites of this tumor, metastatic case had not been reported in Korea yet. So we. report a case of primary hepatic angiosarcoma presenting as hemoptysis and metastasized to lung and spleen with review of previously reported cases.(Korean J Med 66:224-229, 2004)
