Singapore Medical Journal, 64(12), 763-767. https://dx.doi.org/10.11622/smedj.2022093 | Journal: | Singapore Medical Journal | Abstract: | Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are a heterogeneous group of mesenchymal malignancies with a propensity for local recurrence (LR) and metastasis. Surgical resection remains the cornerstone of management. Adjuvant radiotherapy (RT) reduces LR and current guidelines recommend RT for the majority of intermediate-to-high-grade tumours. The indications for RT, however, vary between centres. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10356/173707 | ISSN: | 0037-5675 | DOI: | 10.11622/smedj.2022093 | Schools: | Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine (LKCMedicine) | Rights: | © 2023 Singapore Medical Journal.
