Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
Introduction- Sarcomatous tumors are one of the rarest malignancies of all. They are either mostly of osseous or extraosseous origin. These malignancies have very aggressive behaviour and poor outcomes. Aims- To study age, sex, site, histological distributions among the study population. Methods: Retrospective study of 130 patients conducted from institutional medical records from 2013 to 2017. Results- Among 130 patients there was slight male predominance. Age groups 40-59yrs followed by age less than 20 yrs were commonly encountered. Lower extremity was the most common anatomical site and spindle cell sarcoma was the most common histological subtype found. Conclusion- Though rare, sarcomas are widely distributed occurring at various anatomical sites. Various types of histological patterns are seen. Early diagnosis and aggressive treatment is demanded in order to achieve a remarkable survival and control.
