Understanding Sarcoma: Types, Causes, Diagnosis & Treatment by Oncologist
PACE Hospitals
Sarcoma cancer is a rare type of cancer that arises in the bones, muscles, fat, or other connective tissues. There are two main types: soft tissue sarcomas and bone sarcomas. Diagnosis typically involves imaging tests such as MRIs and biopsies to determine the cancer's nature and stage. Treatment options include surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy, depending on the sarcoma's size, location, and progression. The prognosis varies based on the type and stage at diagnosis, with early detection improving treatment outcomes.
