title: [Retroperitoneal sarcoma. Therapy and course].
abstract: The incidence of retroperitoneal soft tissue sarcomas is with 0.1 to 0.2 percent very low. The tumors most often present as asymptomatic masses until the lesions are quite large, compared with the anatomic part, resulting in compression of nerves, vessels, bowel etc. The recommended management is the aggressive radical tumor excision including the pseudocapsule followed by a consequent clinical, ultrasonography and CT-scan follow-up. Tumor recurrences should be attempted in the same manner as primary tumors.
