Article Title: Soft tissue tumors of the trunk: Management of local disease in the breast and chest and abdominal walls
Abstract: Soft tissue sarcomas of the trunk are rare lesions, generally managed using an algorithm similar to that employed for extremity sarcomas. This review summarizes the standard treatment of truncal sarcomas and considers how these recommendations differ for each of the various common histologic subtypes observed on the trunk: desmoid, dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP), and angiosarcoma.
