Diversity in the spectrum of malignant soft tissue tumors
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RECENT TRENDS IN SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY - Year 2016, Vol 21, Issue 1
Abstract
Soft tissue tumors are a highly heterogenous group of tumors that are classified on a histogenetic basis. Benign tumors far outnumber the malignant ones which form less than 1 % of all cancers. The most common sites are extremities, chest wall, mediastinum and retroperitoneum and as in the case of other malignancies, occur mainly in the older age group except rhabdomyo sarcoma. These tumors present a varied histomorphological pattern. Our study has included the different patterns, with specific site, gender and age distribution.
