Abstract

Angiosarcoma, which has extremely bad consequences, occurs in the head of the elderly, and it causes pulmonary metastasis at a high rate. The therapy is not yet established. We used low dose weekly therapy with Docetaxel/Paclitaxel to treat three cases of angiosarcoma with such enlarged masses that excision was impossible. The treatment inhibited the head tumors and pulmonary metastasis lesions without serious side effects and extended the mean length of life. In addition, the QOL of the patients improved because this treatment was either ambulatory once a week or administration requiring one day of hospitalization a week.
