Exposure of mice to 50, 250, or 1000 ppmm of vinyl chloride (VC) in the air for 6 h/d, 5 d/wk, caused a high incidence of bronchioloalveolar adenoma, mammary gland tumors, and hemangiosarcoma. Mammary gland tumors occurred in the females and included ductular adenocarcinoma and squamous and anaplastic cell carcinomas with metastasis to the lung. Hemangiosarcoma occurred in the liver and, to a lesser extent, in various other organs. The incidence and severity of these tumors increased with the concentration of VC and the length of exposure. Malignant lymphoma involving various organs was observed in several mice. Rats were more resistant to the carcinogenic effects of VC. Exposure of rats to 250 or 1000 ppm of VC caused hemangiosarcoma in the liver. Many rats with hepatic hemangiosarcoma also developed hemangiosarcoma in the lung. Extrahepatic hemangiosarcoma also occasionally occurred in other organs. Exposure to 55 ppm of vinylidene chloride (VDC) caused hepatic hemangiosarcoma and probably bronchioloalveolar adenoma in mice. Hemangiosarcoma also occurred in the mesenteric lymph node or subcutaneous tissue in two rats exposed to 55 ppm of VDC.
