Surgical margin and efficacy evaluation of barrier resection for soft tissue sarcoma of extremities in 72 cases
Limbs soft tissue sarcoma (STS) is a common malignant tumor
and surgical resection is the main treatment method for it. The concept of barrier made us realize the blocking effect of natural barrier on STS
and we aimed to search for tissues that can act as barrier
and to perform complete resection of surgical margins around the tissue barrier. This study aimed to investigate the feasibility
safety and prognosis of barrier resection in the treatment of limbs STS.
Methods:
From December 2013 to September 2016
data of 72 patients who underwent barrier resection of STS of extremities in department of oncosurgery
Minhang Branch
Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center were retrospectively analyzed
and the resection margin was sampled. All 72 patients underwent preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or computed tomography (CT) design
and the physiological barrier or at least 3 cm distance was found outward from the anatomical location of the tumor. And
en bloc
excision was performed outside this barrier or at a distance of 3 cm. The influence of postoperative pathological margin
musculoskeletal tumor society (MSTS) score and postoperative complications on the patients were analyzed. The 1- and 3-year locoregional recurrence-free survival (LRFS) rates and sarcoma-specific survival (SSS) rates were evaluated
and the influencing factors were analyzed. This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center (number: 1212117-12
&
1212117-12-1301).
Results:
All patients had negative margins. The 1- and 3-year LRFS rates were 98.2% and 93.3%
respectively. The 1- and 3-year SSS rates were 98.4% and 94.2%
respectively. The mean MSTS scores were 28.3 preoperatively and 25.5 postoperatively. Surgical complications were grade 1 to 2 in 20 cases and grade 3 in 1 case
and there were no grade 4 to 5 complications.
Conclusion:
Based on the combination of clinical
imaging and pathology data
barrier resection
including tumor resection and functional reconstruction
