Abstract
Management of soft tissue sarcomas requires a multidisciplinary approach with the help of a surgical-orthopedic oncologist, medical oncologist, radiation oncologist, pathologist, hand surgeon, and physiatrist/physical therapist. The indication and benefits of chemotherapy and radiation therapy for soft tissue sarcomas remain somewhat controversial.However, the encouraging results of studies using the most active chemotherapeutic agents gives credence to considering neoadjuvant chemoradiation therapy or postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy in this group of patients.Entities:
