May inform margin and histology-guided planning in retroperitoneal sarcoma; leaves open whether extended resection or neoadjuvant radiation improves outcomes.
Does resection of adjacent organs or neoadjuvant radiation improve outcomes in patients with retroperitoneal sarcomas?
This review summarizes the evidence regarding the extent of surgery and neoadjuvant radiation to optimize treatment margins and outcomes in retroperitoneal sarcoma.
Kirane et al. (2015) conducted a review in Retroperitoneal sarcoma. Surgical margins and extent of surgery was evaluated. This review summarizes data on the prognostic value of surgical margins, the extent of surgery, and the role of histology in optimizing the treatment of retroperitoneal sarcomas.
