Abstract

Soft tissue sarcomas comprise a group of relatively rare, anatomically and histologically diverse neoplasms. These tumors share a common embryological origin, arising primarily from tissues derived from the mesoderm. The notable exceptions are neurosarcomas, primitive neuroectodermal tumors, and possibly E wing's sarcomas, which are believed to arise from tissues of ectodermal origin.
