Surveillance for angiosarcoma of the liver among vinyl chloride workers.

Objective: We report the results of our angiosarcoma of the liver (ASL) registry to assess the occurrence, the impact of exposures to vinyl chloride, and to quantify latency.

Methods: We examined more than 73,000 death certificates of North American workers employed between 1940 and 2008.

Results: We found 13 deaths of ASL among workers with vinyl chloride exposure.
