SUBJECT:
Updated Summary of Reported Cases of Angiosarcoma
of the Liver Among Vinyl Chloride Polymerization Workers
Gentlemen:
Because of Dr. T. R. Torkelson's excellent liaison work on the maintenance of an international registry, Ms. Rose Kaminski has made available to him the most recent update on reported cases of angiosarcoma. Dr. Torkelson thoughtfully has requested that copies of these data be sent immediately to all Panel members. Your copy is attached.
As is shown in the attached copy of Dr. Torkelson's letter addressed to Mr. John Lawrence and the undersigned, there exists a need for additional data to complete the record on new cases. Please cooperate with Dr. Torkelson in his efforts to have the registry be both complete and current.
Sincerely
JTSrec Enclosure
