Tapper, M.D. Corporate Medical Director Air Products and Chemicals Allentown, Pennsylvania 18105 Dear Doctor Tapper: I have reviewed the slides of HHHIHIH that you sent. They show an extensive angiosarcoma which is very vascular and very active. Unfortunately, truly uninvolved liver is nowhere to be seen so that if there wee an underlying cirrhosis the hallmarks are now obliterated by the tumor. da not think that the gold therapy given for the rheumatoid arthritis played any significant role in the extensive spread of this tumor. With beat regards. Very sincerely yours, FS/kh Fenton Schaffner, M.O. Chief, Division of Liver Oiseases RECEIVED. OCT 5 iga^ MEDICAL' DEBT. 9 AP00033990
