Soft Tissue Sarcoma

📖What is Soft Tissue Sarcoma?

Soft tissue sarcoma is a rare type of cancer that arises in the body's connective tissues, including muscle, fat, blood vessels, nerves, tendons, and the lining of joints, and can develop almost anywhere in the body. It encompasses a wide range of subtypes with varying behavior, from slow-growing tumours to highly aggressive ones capable of spreading to the lungs and other organs. Because early soft tissue sarcomas often present as a painless lump that grows gradually, they can be mistaken for benign conditions, sometimes delaying diagnosis. Specialized, multidisciplinary evaluation is essential given the tumour's diverse and sometimes unpredictable behavior.
