Delay in diagnosis of soft tissue sarcomas
European Journal of Surgical Oncology (EJSO), 2003We reviewed 100 patients referred with soft tissue sarcoma between May 1999 to determine doctor- and patient-related delay.Patient delay is defined as longer than one month from first symptoms till doctor's visit, doctor delay as longer than one month from first visit till definitive diagnosis.

Diagnosis and Management of Soft Tissue Sarcomas
Advances in Surgery, 2008STS are a heterogeneous group of malignant tumors that pose significant management challenges. The cornerstone of therapy for patients who have primary STS remains margin-negative resection. Adjuvant radiotherapy has been shown to reduce the risk of recurrence for extremity and trunk STS, although its role for retroperitoneal STS remains to be defined.

• Nonoperative diagnosis should become the norm in breast disease assessment. The aim of sampling procedures should be to fulfil the “triple diagnostic assessment” and achieve as near as possible 100 % nonoperative diagnosis of breast problems. • Automated core needle biopsy (CNB) is the sampling technique of first choice, to prefer over fine needle ...

Diagnosis and management of soft tissue sarcoma
BMJ, 2010#### Summary points Soft tissue sarcomas are a heterogeneous group of tumours of mesodermal origin. Although they are rare, accounting for less than 1% of all malignant tumours, half of patients diagnosed will die from the sarcoma.1 w1 Lumps are commonly encountered in primary and specialist care, and differentiating benign from possibly malignant ...

QUANTITATIVE OPTICAL SPECTROSCOPY FOR TISSUE DIAGNOSIS
Annual Review of Physical Chemistry, 1996▪ Abstract The interaction of light within tissue has been used to recognize disease since the mid-1800s. The recent developments of small light sources, detectors, and fiber optic probes provide opportunities to quantitatively measure these interactions, which yield information for diagnosis at the biochemical, structural, or (patho)physiological ...

Rapid tissue diagnosis during operation has lately fallen into discredit. While many surgeons still are enthusiastic about it, leading pathologists have recently criticized this method as not only unreliable but unnecessary. According to Simpson, 1 "the Frozen Section Fetish appeals to the surgeon mainly because it adds to the drama in the operating ...

Ultrasonographic diagnosis of hemangiomas of soft tissue
Current Medical Science, 1997Presented in this paper are the results of ultrasonic examination in 29 cases of hemangiomas of soft tissue. Out of the 29 cases, 20 lesions were revealed as heterogeneous echoic masses; 6 as anechoic areas and 3 as solid masses. Hyperechoic foci of calcifications or phlebolithes were detected in 16 cases. Intramuscular hemangiomas were sonographically

The effect of microdebriders on tissue for histological diagnosis
Clinical Otolaryngology and Allied Sciences, 1997Microdebriders are an innovation in endonasal surgery which enable accurate and precise removal of tissue without damaging the surrounding mucosa. Concern has been expressed, however, that the instrument may render excised tissue unsuitable for histological diagnosis.

Preoperative diagnosis of soft tissue tumours
International Orthopaedics, 1988Over a period of 3 years in Southern Sweden 35 patients were seen with deep-seated limb sarcomas without metastases, 30 of whom were referred before any operation had been carried out. Thirty seven patients with deep-seated benign lesions were referred during the same period because of suspected malignancy.

Cytological diagnosis of soft tissue tumours
Cytopathology, 2001Cytological diagnosis of soft tissue tumours The aims of this study were to determine the patterns of soft tissue tumours and also to try to assess the utility of fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) in diagnosing soft tissue tumours. Of 15 361 patients who visited the cytology diagnostic service of the Pathology Department, Medical Faculty, Addis ...
