Abstract Introduction. Soft Tissue Sarcomas (STS) is a group of rare malignant tumors with mesenchymal tissue origin. At present, over 50 histopathological types with typical chromosome changes are described. Treatment is multidisciplinary, centered on the surgical approach. Method. Between 2014 and 2016, 12 STS cases were treated in our clinic: 3 liposarcomas, 2 synovial sarcomas, 1 angiosarcoma, 2 rhabdomyosarcomas, 2 myxofibrosarcomas, 1 fibroblast sarcoma and 1 clear cell sarcoma. With the exception of angiosarcoma that benefited only from chemotherapy, the other cases were surgically approached, followed by radiotherapy in 7 cases, and chemotherapy in one case. Results. Patient follow-up was for a minimum of 2 years. In 3 cases (fibroblast sarcoma, clear-cell sarcoma, synovial sarcoma), a local recurrence occurred between 3 and 9 months. In 2 cases (fibroblastic sarcoma, synovial sarcoma), pulmonary metastases occurred between 6 and 18 months and the patients died at 8 months and 2 years respectively. The rest of the cases were clinically and imagistically assessed (local MRI, lung CT) at 6 months for at least 2 years and showed no signs of local recurrence or metastasis. Conclusions. The evolution of STS depends on the histological type and to the stage of diagnosis (local extension, degree of differentiation and presence of metastases). Therapeutic approach should be centered on an accurate resection, within the limits of oncological safety even with re-resection. Postoperative radiotherapy is used in most of the cases, and chemotherapy is reserved for special cases with unfavorable local evolution or metastasis.

PURPOSE To analyze different events that determine event-free survival (EFS) in a randomized trial on adjuvant radiotherapy in early breast cancer patients with more than 15 years of follow-up evaluation. PATIENTS AND METHODS The trial included 960 patients with a unilateral, operable breast cancer. Surgery consisted of a modified radical mastectomy. The trial compared three arms, as follows: preoperative radiotherapy, postoperative radiotherapy, and no adjuvant treatment. Events were analyzed by a competing-risk approach. A proportional hazards multiple regression model was used to analyze the effects of radiotherapy on the risk of distant metastasis. Similar analyses were performed separately for node-negative [N(-)] and node-positive [N(+)] patients in the two groups that did not include preoperative radiotherapy. RESULTS Radiotherapy produced a fivefold decrease of the risk of local recurrence (P < .0001). In N(+) patients, postoperative radiotherapy decreased the risk of distant dissemination (relative risk, 0.63). When local recurrence was introduced in the model as a time-dependent covariate, this factor was predictive of distant dissemination (P < .0001) and nullified the effect of postoperative radiotherapy. This finding suggests that the decrease of distant metastases was related to the prevention of local recurrence. A similar effect was found in models that used overall survival as an end point. CONCLUSION This study shows that postmastectomy radiotherapy in N(+) breast cancer patients may decrease the distant metastasis rate by preventing local recurrences and thus avoiding secondary dissemination.
