Résumé
Angiosarcoma (AS) is a rare aggressive sarcoma with differentiation toward blood or lymphatic endothelium. There are few epidemiological data available on AS. To address this limitation, we investigated the epidemiological and clinical features of angiosarcoma diagnosed in a French administrative area (the Doubs department) from 1979 to 2016. A retrospective cohort study was conducted using the Doubs cancer registry database. A total of 45 patients with invasive AS were diagnosed between 1979 and 2016 in the Doubs department. Among the 45 AS, 51% were either cutaneous AS (27%), including head and neck and extremities, or breast AS (24%) as compared to visceral AS (42%). Eleven patients had metastasis at diagnosis (26%). Age-standardized incidence rate was 0.15 per 100,000 persons-years (95%CI, 0.10-0.20) for the entire study period (1979-2016) and 0.26 (95%CI, 0.15-0.42) for the last decade (2007-2016). Crude survival at 1, 3, 5 years after diagnosis was 44%, 21%, and 12%, respectively. Our population-based study provides updated data on the incidence and overall survival of AS in a French population-based cancer registry.
