Thyroid angiosarcoma (TAS) is rare and represents a very aggressive malignancy. Its rarity is principally linked to two major pitfalls. Firstly, TAS histopathology diagnosis can be difficult; second, the limited clinical experience with this condition can make its management complex. We conducted a detailed systematic review, focusing on the knowledge available regarding TAS etiopathogenesis, treatment options and prognosis. The aim is to present the main TAS characteristics and to summarize the clinical experiences described worldwide, in order to provide a useful clinical tool.

Abstract

Thyroid angiosarcoma (TAS) is rare and represents a very aggressive malignancy. Its rarity is principally linked to two major pitfalls. Firstly, TAS histopathology diagnosis can be difficult; second, the limited clinical experience with this condition can make its management complex. We conducted a detailed systematic review, focusing on the knowledge available regarding TAS etiopathogenesis, treatment options and prognosis. The aim is to present the main TAS characteristics and to summarize the clinical experiences described worldwide, in order to provide a useful clinical tool.
