I am responding to your group info on angiosarcoma.
My family member has angiosarcoma of the scalp-very very rare-& not much info for patient or family…she has had many surgeries on her scalp-tumors re occurred-radiation didn’t do a thing.
(2 times -each like 8 weeks)
Then chemo 2 times for a very long time.
She is a survivor.
She is a strong person with a lot of will.
Diagnosed in Oct 2019.
She is still alive and has not had new tumors in the last year.
She has no scalp left, so that is a good thing.
She has PETscans regularly- no indication of spread to other areas - she feels good considering -living her life -good days and down days.
Amazing gal. I love her! Sending hope to all of you-I never thought she’d be here living her life fully in 2022
Always have hope!!!

I also have angioscarcoma and was cancer free until about a month ago. I had chemo, radiation and several surgeries, 5 years ago. I have recently had a biopsy on my head that showed angioscarcoma, luckily no metastasis. I was wondering how your family member's surgeon was able to cover the scalp after removal of the sarcoma. Any information you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Hopefully she continues to do well. Sounds like she is an amazing women and survivor.
