Clinical recommendations for treatment of localized angiosarcoma: A consensus paper by the Italian Sarcoma Group

Angiosarcoma (AS) is a rare and aggressive vascular sarcoma. The current European Society of Medical Oncology (ESMO) clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) for the treatment of sarcomas apply to AS as well. However, AS aggressiveness and diverse tumor presentations differentiate it from other sarcomas, impacting clinical decisions. This is especially relevant in the context of localized disease, where considerations about the extent of surgery, the use of radiation therapy (RT), and the indication for neoadjuvant/adjuvant chemotherapy may vary.
