Title: Soft-tissue and bone tumors about the foot and ankle. Author: Walling AK, Gasser SI. Journal: Clin Sports Med; 1994 Oct; 13(4):909-38. PubMed ID: 7805113. Abstract: The development of primary and malignant tumors of the soft tissues and bones of the foot and ankle are uncommon. A potential for misdiagnosis and increased morbidity exists for those patients who do indeed have a malignancy. This article illustrates the proper steps in staging lesions and the appropriate techniques for biopsy. This will help physicians to avoid undertreating malignant lesions, and, conversely, overtreating benign lesions.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
