Soft-tissue sarcoma: Mayo Clinic experience

Abstract

Soft-tissue tumors encompass a wide variety of lesions and continue to pose a difficult treatment problem. The outlook, however, is improving, and there have been recent advances in pretreatment assessment, clinicopathologic correlation, and adjuvant treatment programs. We retrospectively reviewed our experience in a large series of soft-tissue tumors treated at the Mayo Clinic as well as recent experience using chemotherapy and radiation treatment.
