The radiation dose‐response of non‐retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcoma with positive margins: An NCDB analysis

 
 
 
 

Abstract


Positive margins can increase the risk of local recurrence of soft tissue sarcomas (STS). Utilizing a national registry, we investigated patterns of care and overall survival (OS) of patients with margin‐positive non‐retroperitoneal STS who received preoperative radiation therapy, adjuvant radiation therapy, or both.
