Pattern of Local Recurrence After Conservative Surgery and Radiotherapy for Soft Tissue Sarcoma

Purpose: Over the past three decades our centre has adopted a policy of conservative surgery followed by adjuvant radicaldose radiotherapy for medium-and high-grade soft tissue sarcomas. For all cases of local recurrence following this treatment we aimed to define the spatial relationship between sites of recurrence and the positions of the phase 1 and 2 radiotherapy volumes.
