Soft tissue sarcomas of the extremity and superficial trunk: do we need radiotherapy?
Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are a heterogeneous group of mesenchymal malignancies with a propensity for local recurrence (LR) and metastasis. Surgical resection remains the cornerstone of management. Adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) reduces LR and current guidelines recommend RT for the majority of interme...
