Surgical Treatment of Soft Tissue Sarcoma
並列摘要
Sarcomas of soft tissue are uncommon. Many different methods of treatment have been developed, but surgical resection is still an effective option. This retrospective study of 26 patients with soft tissue sarcoma treated by surgery between 1987 and 1996 in Kaohsiung Medical College Hospital involved 12 male and 14 female patients, aged from 14to 77 with an average of 44 years. The follow-up period ranged from 6 months to 110 months. While we have found that histological grade and distant metastasis can be closely related to survival in soft tissue sarcoma, local recurrence, adjuvant radiotherapy or chemotherapy, tumor size and surgical procedure (amputation or limb-salvage) do not influence the survival rate. We have also confirmed that limb-salvage is an appropriated treatment for soft tissue sarcoma.
