Additional Information
The place where a sarcoma starts is called the “primary site.” Surgical removal of the primary sarcoma, which is sometimes followed by radiation therapy, cures many patients. For some patients, however, sarcoma spreads through the bloodstream to distant sites in the body such as the lungs or liver. The process of the tumor spreading to other areas is called “metastasis,” and the secondary sites are called “metastases.” Fortunately, fewer than 20 percent of all soft-tissue sarcomas have metastasized before they are diagnosed.
Local recurrence does not necessarily mean that the first treatment was wrong or inadequate, and it doesn’t mean that the person with the recurrence cannot be cured. Soft-tissue sarcoma is a treatable cancer even when it recurs locally.
Sarcoma Oncology Center physicians are uniquely qualified to treat sarcoma whether a patient is newly diagnosed or faces a recurrence. We are intimately involved in our patients’ care and offer personal and individualized attention from renowned oncologists. Dr. Sant Chawla, Dr. K. Kumar Sankhala, and the Sarcoma Oncology Center team’s collaboration with specialists from other prestigious institutions enable us to address the complexity of each case.
