Abstract
Soft tissue sarcomas of the extremities are rarely malignant tumors. They are best treated by an experienced interdisciplinary sarcoma team. A preoperative biopsy and imaging are prerequisites for successful sarcoma treatment. Before surgery the multimodal treatment and the extent of resection and, if necessary, plastic reconstruction should be discussed in amultidisciplinary tumor board. The aim is always acomplete R0 resection with optimal preservation of function. The preservation of critical structures (e. g. sciatic nerve) by aplanned focal marginal resection along the critical structure can be performed by an experienced team in amultidisciplinary treatment setting.
