Localized Angiosarcoma, Not One Disease: A Retrospective Single-Center Study on Prognosis Depending on the Primary Site and Etiology.

Different behaviors and prognoses depending on the primary site and etiology should be considered for the treatment of this heterogeneous disease. In cutaneous angiosarcomas of the head/neck and postradiation angiosarcomas of the breast, local recurrence seems to have a crucial impact on OS. Therefore, improved local therapies and local tumor staging may have to be implemented. However, in deep soft tissue angiosarcomas, distant recurrence seems to have a major influence on prognosis, which indicates a benefit of additional perioperative chemotherapy.
