Clinical Oncology, 1992
Soft tissue sarcomas are rare, with some 1200 new cases in the UK each year; clinicians outside specialist centres see no more than a few. They involve principally the soft connective tissues of the limbs, limb girdles and retroperitoneum, and also occur in the head and neck, and abdominal and chest walls.

Pediatric Soft-Tissue Sarcomas
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1996Pediatric soft-tissue sarcomas represent a relatively common problem in pediatric oncology. The evaluation of these lesions has contributed significantly to the understanding of the molecular basis of sarcomas, and the adjuvant treatment of these tumors has resulted in improved local control and significant improvements in long-term survival.

Background: Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are a group of anatomically and histologically diverse tumours. They account for about 1% of adult malignancies, and about 50% of patients diagnosed with sarcoma eventually die of the disease. These tumours are grouped together because of shared biological characteristics and treatment responses.

Soft tissue sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of non-epithelial extraskeletal malignancies accounting for about 8 % of childhood cancers. Half of the cases are represented by rhabdomyosarcoma, a typical embryonal tumor of childhood, characterized by high grade of malignancy and strong propensity to metastasize, but also by a general good response to ...

Pediatric soft tissue sarcomas
Surgical Oncology Clinics of North America, 2003Many of the soft tissue sarcomas that occur in children are of the same histology as those in adults; however, the relative prevalence of these sarcomas is different between children and adults. In some cases, the biologic behavior of pediatric sarcomas is more benign than that in adults. Treatment for sarcomas in children is also different.

Soft tissue tumors in very young children pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Vascular tumors are the most prevalent soft tissue neoplasms in the neonatal period. They are generally benign tumors, but may exhibit aggressive behaviour and cause life-threatening complications.

Pediatric Soft Tissue Sarcomas
Seminars in Ultrasound, CT and MRI, 2011After a brief discussion of the rarity of soft tissue sarcomas in children and of the limited ability of magnetic resonance imaging to provide a tissue diagnosis, this article discusses the incidence, presentation, treatment, prognosis, and imaging characteristics of the more common and unusual pediatric soft tissue sarcomas.

Sarcoma is a cancer that arises from cells of mesenchymal origin, such as bone, cartilage, muscle, fat, vascular, or hematopoietic tissue. It is a very rare form of cancer with over 50 histologic subtypes. This chapter discusses selected individual subtypes of sarcomas and characteristics specific to each one. It will broadly go over molecular biology,

Malignancy of soft tissue, referred to as sarcomas, are some of the rarest tumors in medicine. These tumors account for approximately 1% of all diagnosed malignancies. Diagnosis of soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a complex process that includes history and physical examination of patient, diagnostic imaging studies, and biopsy when indicated.

Primary Retroperitoneal Soft-Tissue Sarcomas
Journal of Urology, 1984AbstractOf the 98 soft‐tissue sarcomas treated between 1973–1978, 12 were retroperitoneal in origin. Fifty percent underwent one to three previous surgical procedures. All patients were operated on. In 75% (nine out of 12), the tumor was completely resected. The operative mortality for total tumor excision was 11%.
