A study of trends in upper arm soft tissue sarcomas in the state of Connecticut following the introduction of alum-absorbed allergenic extract.
The incidence of soft tissue sarcomas of the upper and lower limbs in Connecticut from 1935-1974 was studied to determine whether the incidence of upper limb sarcoma changed following the introduction of alum-adsorbed allergenic extracts in 1963. No changes were observed that could be related to the use of alum.
