title: [Compartment resection as therapy of choice in subfascial soft tissue sarcoma exemplified by the thigh].
abstract: Soft-tissue sarcomas tend to have local recurrences after inadequate therapy. So reactions with wide margins are required. If a sarcoma is localized subfascially, such wide margins are often hard to achieve in a "wide resection". Concerning the growth behavior of soft-tissue sarcomas and the intraoperative orientation it makes more sense to resect these tumors with their whole anatomical compartment. This kind of operation is described by the three large compartmental resections of the thigh.
