| Abstract |
Several studies have shown an increased risk of soft-tissue sarcoma resulting from exposure to 2,4,5-T, TCDD, and other phenoxy herbicides and chlorophenols. The results obtained do not support the hypothesis of Cook that smokers acquiring chloracne as a result of exposure are at increased risk of soft-tissue sarcoma. |
