Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are a rare and diverse group of tumors that affect both adult and pediatric populations. This review discusses current screening recommendations for populations at increased risk for STS, including those with genetic predispositions. We also review surveillance guidelines for those at risk for recurrence following curative-intent surgery.
