Overview
Surgery
Surgery is the key treatment for liposarcoma that has not metastasized into other organs. Tumor along with a wide margin of healthy tissue is removed to ensure that only healthy tissue is retained. Stage 1 of lims, trunk, head and neck are treated with surgery. Stage 2 and 3 may require radiation and chemotherapy along with surgery for treatment. Following is a classification for surgical resection. [1]
| Surgical resection | Proceedure |
|---|---|
| Intraleisional | Curettage, Partial tumor removal |
| Marginal | May leave microscopic tumor behind |
| Wide | Remove tumor and surrounding cuff of tissue |
| Radical | Remove entire compartment including amputation |
