Abstract
There is no doubt that surgical excision is the first-choice treatment for soft tissue sarcomas. In the limbs, however, resection of the tumor with the requisite margins of clearance (4 cm in the longitudinal and transverse planes and 2 cm in the vertical plane) [7] is often hindered by the proximity of nerves and vessels.
