title: [The treatment of soft tissue sarcomas (author's transl)].
abstract: The treatment of soft tissue sarcomas gives poor results. Two thirds of the patients die of the disease. In retrospective studies the histological grading of the sarcomas has been shown to be the best prognostic sign. Combination of the effective treatment modalities: surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy in the primary phase of the treatment as well as the concentration of all the cases in selected care units is recommended.
