Sarcoma

Collectively the largest treatment program in New England for patients with soft tissue sarcomas and bone tumors, the sarcoma treatment centers offer extensive expertise in the assessment of, and novel treatment strategies for, these rare malignancies.

Treatment is provided by a multidisciplinary team comprising specialists in medical oncology, surgical oncology, radiation oncology, pathology, plastic and reconstructive surgery, and orthopaedics, who collaborate to design a treatment plan that will minimize local recurrence, maximize function, and improve survival.

Services include evaluation, histopathological diagnosis and review, and radiologic investigation of tumors, as well as surgical approaches to sarcomas, multimodality approaches to soft tissue and bone sarcomas, treatment of disease that has recurred or spread, and novel soft-tissue and bone-reconstructive techniques for limb preservation. Patients may also participate in clinical trials evaluating new diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
