Recurrent Liposarcoma- Patient’s Perspective
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
Soft tissue sarcomas may occur anywhere in the body. Three fourths are located in the extremities and the remaining 10 percent each in the trunk, wall and retroperitoneum with a slight male predominance. Soft tissue sarcomas become more common with increasing age with median age being 65 years.[1] Sarcomas over limbs may require amputation, however patients are not willing for losing their limb. Moreover, in evidence based medicine, patients choice has to be kept in mind. We present a case of recurrent LPS where wide local excision for recurrent LPS over left thigh was done as patient was not willing for amputation
