Background The exact overall incidence of sarcoma and sarcoma subtypes is not known. The objective of the present population-based study was to determine this incidence in a European region (Rhone-Alpes) of six million inhabitants, based on a central pathological review of the cases. Methodology/Principal Findings From March 2005 to February 2007, pathology reports and tumor blocks were prospectively collected from the 158 pathologists of the Rhone-Alpes region. All diagnosed or suspected cases of sarcoma were collected, reviewed centrally, examined for molecular alterations and classified according to the 2002 World Health Organization classification. Of the 1287 patients screened during the study period, 748 met the criteria for inclusion in the study. The overall crude and world age-standardized incidence rates were respectively 6.2 and 4.8 per 100,000/year. Incidence rates for soft tissue, visceral and bone sarcomas were respectively 3.6, 2.0 and 0.6 per 100,000. The most frequent histological subtypes were gastrointestinal stromal tumor (18%; 1.1/100,000), unclassified sarcoma (16%; 1/100,000), liposarcoma (15%; 0.9/100,000) and leiomyosarcoma (11%; 0.7/100,000). Conclusions/Significance The observed incidence of sarcomas was higher than expected. This study is the first detailed investigation of the crude incidence of histological and molecular subtypes of sarcomas.

PURPOSE A cancer network of general or private hospitals of a French region was started in 1995 for improving quality of care and rationalizing medical prescriptions. The impact of implementing a clinical practice guidelines (CPG) project assessed conformity with guidelines in medical practice; significant changes were observed within the network, whereas no changes were observed in a control region without cancer network. In the present study, we evaluated the persistence of conformity to guidelines through a new medical audit. PATIENTS AND METHODS In 1999, the hospitals of the previously compared experimental and control groups accepted to reassess the impact of CPG. A controlled transversal study was performed in the experimental group (cancer network) and in the control group (no regional cancer network). In 1996 (first audit) and in 1999 (present audit), all new patients with colon cancer (177 and 200 in experimental group and 118 and 100 in control group, respectively) and early breast cancer (444 and 381 in experimental group and 172 and 204 in control group, respectively) were selected. RESULTS In the experimental group, the compliance of medical decisions with CPG was significantly higher in 1999 than in 1996 for colon cancer (73%; 95% CI, 67% to 79% v 56%; 95% CI, 49% to 63%, respectively; P = .003) and similar for the two periods for breast cancer (36%; 95% CI, 31% to 41% v 40%; 95% CI, 35% to 44%, respectively; P = .24). In the control group, compliance was significantly higher in 1999 than in 1996 for colon cancer (67%; 95% CI, 58% to 76% v 38%; 95% CI, 29% to 47%, respectively; P < .001) and identical for the two periods for breast cancer (4%; 95% CI, 1% to 7% v 7%; 95% CI, 3% to 11%, respectively; P = .19). CONCLUSION The CPG program for cancer management produced persistent changes in medical practice in our cancer network in terms of conformity with CPG.

Sarcomas comprise a heterogeneous group of mesenchymal neoplasms. They can be grouped into 3 general categories, soft tissue sarcoma, visceral and primary bone sarcoma, which have different staging and treatment approaches. Soft tissue sarcomas are typically classified on the basis of genetic alterations and light-microscopic examination of hematoxylin-eosin-stained tissue, in which recognizable morphological characteristics of normal tissues are identified. Sarcomas are further characterized by histologic grade. The 3 most important prognostic variables are grade, size, and location of the primary tumor. This review includes a discussion of both soft tissue sarcomas (unclassified sarcoma, liposarcoma, leiomyosarcoma, synovial sarcoma, dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, angiosarcoma, Kaposi sarcoma, gastrointestinal stromal tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, ...) and primary bone sarcomas (osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma and chondrosarcoma). The approach to a patient with a sarcoma begins with a biopsy that obtains adequate tissue for diagnosis without interfering with subsequent optimal definitive surgery. Subsequent treatment depends on the specific type of sarcoma. Due to the absence of clear knowledge for incidence rate, we conducted in 2005 and 2006 an exhaustive analysis of all diagnosed cases in the Rhône-Alpes region. Because sarcomas are relatively uncommon yet comprise a wide variety of different entities, second opinion was systematically performed for all included cases.
