One of the major advances of the last decade concerning the
treatment of patients with soft tissue sarcomas is that an
increased number of patients are being discussed in
multidisciplinary teams prior to the initial treatment. The present
volume on soft tissue sarcomas in the series Cancer Treatment and
Research reflects the multidisciplinary approach with a focus on
recent developments. The availability of new histopathologic
techniques has reduced the number of unclassified sarcomas and has
furhter increased the importance of the histo pathologist in
providing estimates of the prognosis of the patient as well as data
for the planning of treatment strategy. Further data for this
strategy will be provided by diagnostic imaging. In this field, the
role of magnetic reson ance imaging has been further defined. Of
utmost importance is the recent trend toward consensus in staging.
The modification of the staging system of the American Joint
Commission for Cancer Staging and End Results Report ing brings the
possibility of a single staging system within reach in the next
decade. As surgery still provides the only chance for cure, the
importance of being the most sparing as possible is obvious. For
this reason, radiotherapy has been applied with success. The
introduction of relatively new radiation tech niques is therefore
being observed with interest."
