tissue sarcoma (eSTS). Achieving clear histopathological margins is the most important …

Background. Limb salvage surgery (LSS) has gained widespread acceptance as the current
treatment for treating extremity soft tissue sarcoma (STS) and has been greatly refined since …

Opinion statement High-risk soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are defined as large (> 5 cm),
intermediate/high-grade tumors and can carry a> 50% risk of death from metastases. A …

Opinion statement Soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a heterogeneous disease, in terms of

10068 Background: In previous studies, quality of margins after resection of primary STS of
extremity was only defined by their size. Methods: We analyzed all patients (pts) with primary …

Uniform conclusions about therapeutic concepts and survival time of bone and soft tissue
sarcoma patients are difficult due to the heterogeneity of histological subtypes as well as the …

Background Adult soft tissue sarcomas (STS) of extremities are prone to recurrence despite
apparently complete resection. This study aimed to explore the impact of clinicopathological …

Background The standard curative treatments for extremity soft tissue sarcoma (ESTS)
include surgical resection with negative margins and perioperative radiotherapy. However …

Surgery is potentially curative for primary nonmetastatic extremity soft tissue sarcomas. After
surgery alone, patients may remain at risk for local recurrences and/or metastatic disease …

Negative surgical margins (R0 resection) play a key role in the prevention of local
recurrences of soft tissue sarcoma of the extremities in the multimodal therapy concept. The …
