title: [Surgical treatment of sarcoma of the soft tissues of the extremities].
abstract: The experience with radical operations carried out upon 281 patients with malignant tumors of the soft tissues of the extremities has proved that sparing operations are more common surgical interventions (62.2%) than amputations (38.8%). The rate of the five years' survival of the patients following amputations is lower (23.6%) than following sparing operations (62.6%), which most probably depends o, the character of a lesion influencing the choice of the volume of an operation.
