Abstract:
Sarcomas are relatively uncommon tumors of mesenchymal origin. They may arise anywhere within the musculoskeletal system and are typically classified by clinical behavior into benign, borderline, or malignant. This article focuses primarily on the role of radiation for malignant soft tissue sarcoma and selected borderline tumors.
