Rates of major wound complications in this cohort are comparable to published data, higher rates of wound infections were observed after neoadjuvant radiotherapy. Tumor localization, patient age and diabetes seem to be major risk factors. The number of risk factors for high risk soft tissue sarcoma seem to influence DMFS. Neoadjuvant treatment increases the risk only for wound infection treated with oral or intravenous antibiotic therapy and appears to be a safe option at an experienced tertiary center in absence of other risk factors.
