Diagnosis and Management of Soft Tissue Sarcoma

Soft tissue sarcoma is an uncommon disease, and it has typically carried an ominous prognosis. In the last two decades, however, scientists and researchers have made huge bounds in their attempts to understand these diseases. This new understanding makes for more accurate prognostic and therapeutic information, and so much of the mystique surrounding soft tissue sarcoma is fading. This volume helps in that effort. The author sets forth a true classification of the disease, including a historical perspective. Various techniques for recognizing and then treating the sarcoma are discussed. Diagnosis and Management of Soft Tissue Sarcoma is essential for oncologists and can serve as a useful guide for advanced students in the field.
