  • Title: Surgical management of retroperitoneal and pelvic sarcomas.
    Author: Tan MC, Yoon SS.
    Journal: J Surg Oncol; 2015 Apr; 111(5):553-61. PubMed ID: 25482329.
    Abstract:
    Management of retroperitoneal sarcomas presents technical and oncological challenges. Imaging is crucial for diagnosis and to define local tumor extent. Complete gross resection at initial presentation is the best chance for cure, but there is controversy as to how this can be best achieved. There is a long-term risk of local recurrence, which is best treated with repeat resection if feasible. The roles of radiation and chemotherapy remain undefined.
