[en] Primary breast sarcoma (PBS) is a very rare disease with an annual incidence estimated to 45 cases per million. It rises from breast connective tissue and constitutes highly recurrent tumors with poor prognosis. The management of the primary breast sarcoma relies on the tumor size, histology, and requires a multidisciplinary approach. In sub-Saharan Africa PBS was very rarely reported. We are reporting here on two cases. The two cases observed in our settings were young women who presented with high-grade sarcoma showing an aggressive form, a very fast recurrence and worse prognosis within few months following the diagnosis.
