NEW YORK (Reuters Health) Jul 01 –
In adults with soft tissue sarcoma of the limbs, the choice of preoperative or postoperative external-beam radiotherapy influences the number of wound-healing complications, according to a report in the June 29th issue of The Lancet.
Dr. Brian O’Sullivan of the University of Toronto and colleagues randomly assigned 94 such patients to preoperative radiotherapy (50 Gy in 25 fractions) and 96 to postoperative radiotherapy (66 Gy in 33 fractions). Eighty-eight and 94 patients, respectively, were included in the final analysis.
