Treatment of Angiosarcoma of the Head and Neck: A Systematic Review

Primary cutaneous angiosarcoma (cAS) of the head and neck is a rare sarcoma with a poor prognosis and limited treatment options. We conducted a systematic review of treatments used for head and neck cAS and determined the treatment modalities that offer the longest mean overall survival (OS). Forty publications totaling 1295 patients were included. Both surgical and nonsurgical modalities have shown potential efficacy in the treatment of cAS; however, limited data preclude definitive recommendations. Multidisciplinary management of cAS should be considered to tailor treatment on a case-by-case basis.
