Description

Management of Soft Tissue Sarcoma addresses the diagnosis and best current management of adult soft tissue sarcomas. Edited by world renowned experts, this book delineates and discusses each different sarcoma subtype individually. Both clinical and molecular diagnoses are addressed, and tumor histopathology is employed as the basis of treatment recommendations including surgery, radiation therapy, systemic therapy and novel therapeutics.
