Radiotherapy for Soft Tissue Sarcoma of the Proximal Lower Extremity
Soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) is a histopathologically diverse group of tumors accounting for approximately 10,000 new malignancies in the US each year. The proximal lower extremity is the most common site for STS, accounting for approximately one-third of all cases. Coordinated multimodality management in the form of surgery and radiation is often critical to local control, limb preservation, and ...
متن کاملNeoadjuvant sequential chemoradiotherapy versus radiotherapy alone for treatment of high-risk extremity soft tissue sarcoma: a single-institution experience
AIM OF THE STUDY Patients with large and high-grade extremity soft-tissue sarcoma are at significant risk for distant metastasis and sarcoma-related death. There is no randomized trial comparing chemoradiotherapy to radiotherapy in the neoadjuvant setting for high risk extremity soft-tissue sarcoma. The aim of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of patients treated with two different modalit...
متن کاملHyper-Fractionated Radiotherapy for Soft Tissue Sarcoma: Results of the Second Study of Hyper-Fractionated Radiotherapy
Purpose and Method. Hyper-fractionated radiotherapy for treatment of soft tissue sarcomas is designed to deliver a higher total dose of radiation without an increase in late normal tissue damage. In a previous study at the Royal Marsden Hospital, a total dose of 75 Gy using twice daily 1.25 Gy fractions resulted in a higher incidence of late damage than conventional radiotherapy using 2 Gy dail...
متن کاملSoft tissue sarcoma.
Soft tissue sarcomas are rare tumours of the connective tissue. The knowledge of this rare entity is necessary for an accurate diagnosis. The incidence in Europe is about 3,6/100 000 per year. The first line treatment consists of a wide resection of the tumour, possibly combined with an adjuvant radiation therapy. A chemotherapy can be indicated and has to be evaluated for each case individuall...

Soft-tissue sarcomas are rare malignancies of mesodermal origin. Common sites of involvement include the extremities, trunk, retroperitoneum, and the head and neck. Soft-tissue sarcomas of the extremities and pelvis are the most relevant to the orthopaedic surgeon. The patient with extremity soft-tissue sarcoma typically presents with a painless, enlarging mass. Advanced imaging techniques and ...
