Factors Influencing Prognosis After Initial Inadequate Excision (IIE) for Soft Tissue Sarcoma

Purpose. The influence of initial inadequate excision (IIE) of soft tissue sarcoma (STS) on local control and overall survival is not well established. It is generally believed that an IIE may have a negative impact on both, despite subsequent treatment by radical surgery and radiotherapy. However,...

However, data on local recurrence-free survival/overall survival are conflicting and there are no data on the effect of IIE on overall survival.http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/13577140310001650321
