Soft Tissue Sarcoma
๐Overview
These malignant tumors develop within the soft tissues that connect, support, and surround other body structures, including blood vessels, tendons, and the lining of joints. This category of cancer is distinct from bone sarcomas and encompasses a variety of specific tumor types.
While these growths can manifest in any part of the body, they are frequently identified in the limbs or the trunk. The condition involves the uncontrolled growth of cells within these specialized tissues, potentially affecting the function of the surrounding area.
