Breast sarcoma--a review of diagnosis and management.

Sarcoma of the breast is a rare condition. The biological differences from other primary breast tumours necessitate a corresponding difference in approach to diagnostic and management strategies. The rarity of the condition has made clinicopathological study difficult, with most series limited to less than 50 patients. We review the current literature on the diagnosis and management of breast sarcoma, and highlight areas of likely future development.
