Risk factors for the development of local recurrence in extremity soft-tissue sarcoma.

The traditional view that surgical radicality always results in low rates of LR, while marginality alone always leads to high rates of relapse, is outdated. In the modern era of surgical oncology, limb salvage and high-level function after resectional surgery are the key surgical goals. The best results are achieved by combining effective neoadjuvant treatments with planned bespoke oncological operations that consider the biological and anatomical factors of each individual sarcoma.
