Summary

Local recurrence-free interval is key for assessing soft tissue sarcoma surgery quality. Achieving R0 resection (no residual disease) through surgeon-pathologist collaboration is crucial for optimal oncologic outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Surgical Oncology
  • Sarcoma Research
  • Clinical Outcomes

Background:

  • Evaluating surgery quality in soft tissue sarcomas is complex.
  • Focus on local recurrence is essential, excluding functional outcomes and morbidity.
  • Identifying reliable indicators for surgical success is paramount.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review recent publications on indicators of surgery quality in soft tissue sarcoma treatment.
  • To identify key oncologic outcomes for assessing surgical performance.
  • To establish benchmarks for local recurrence rates.

Main Methods:

  • Systematic review of recent literature on soft tissue sarcoma surgery.
  • Analysis of reported indicators for oncologic outcomes.
  • Focus on local recurrence as the primary endpoint.

Main Results:

  • Local recurrence-free interval is the major endpoint for surgery quality.
  • Five-year local recurrence-free rates should ideally be below 10% for limb/trunk sarcomas.
  • Margin quality, determined by surgeon-pathologist consensus (UICC R0), is superior to margin width.

Conclusions:

  • Local recurrence-free interval is the most pertinent indicator of surgical quality in soft tissue sarcomas.
  • Achieving R0 resection through collaborative margin assessment is critical.
  • Treatment in specialized centers within multidisciplinary teams improves surgical outcomes.
