239eP Do unplanned "Whoops” excision cases of infiltrative soft-tissue sarcoma have a poor prognosis? Single institution study

SSS. ShimomuraSIS. IwataEKE. Kobayashi

Key Points

  • This research aims to evaluate the prognosis of unplanned excision cases of infiltrative soft-tissue sarcoma.
  • Retrospective analysis of 11 patients with retroperitoneal sarcomas
  • Followed patients from 2019 to 2025
  • Utilized both conventional laparoscopy and robot-assisted techniques
  • Identified concerns about tumor rupture and margin status
  • Evaluated the role of minimally invasive surgery in sarcoma treatment
  • Demonstrated challenges in achieving favorable outcomes after unplanned excisions

Abstract

Background:The role of minimally invasive surgery (MIS) in primary retroperitoneal sarcomas is debated due to concerns regarding tumor rupture and margin status.However, advances in laparoscopy, robotics, and retroperitoneoscopy may offer alternatives to open surgery in selected cases. Methods:We retrospectively analyzed eleven consecutive patients undergoing MIS for histologically confirmed retroperitoneal sarcomas between 2019 and 2025.Surgical approaches included conventional laparoscopy (n = 8), robot-assisted
