TL;DR: Malignant schwannoma should be considered in the differential diagnosis of tumors developing in areas previously treated with radiation, as well as in the clinical course of both groups of patients, although local recurrence had a more ominous prognosis in patients with neurofibromatosis.

TL;DR: The clinical records and histologic material of 48 patients with extraosseous osteogenic sarcoma were reviewed, and the course of most patients was that of multiple local recurrences followed by pulmonary metastases and death, with median survivals greater than 60 months for patients receiving these treatments.

TL;DR: Except for nine patients, tumor was confined to the chest at the time of diagnosis, but in 33 of the remaining 114 patients, spread to the abdomen or distant metastasis was seen during the course of disease, so surgery and radiotherapy were ineffective in preventing local recurrence.

TL;DR: The benefit of adjuvant radiation therapy delivered by the brachytherapy technique in 117 adult patients who had soft-tissue sarcoma that was on an extremity or superficially localized to the trunk and a significant decrease in local recurrence was demonstrated.

TL;DR: A prospective randomized trial was conducted to compare the cardiotoxic and therapeutic effects of doxorubicin administered by bolus or 72‐hour continuous infusion as adjuvant chemotherapy in 82 eligible patients after resection of high‐grade soft tissue sarcoma of the extremity or superficial trunk.
