Histology-based Classification Predicts Pattern of Recurrence and Improves Risk Stratification in Primary Retroperitoneal Sarcoma

Abstract

Histologic type/subtype is the most important independent predictor of DSD, LR, and DR in primary retroperitoneal sarcoma. Histology predicts the pattern and incidence of LR and DR and will aid in more accurate patient counseling and selection of patients for adjuvant therapy trials.
