| Title | [Aggressive course of a malignant alveolar soft tissue sarcoma.] | | Author(s) | Strunk T, Bastian PJ, Ellinger J, Biermann K, Müller SC | | Institution | Klinik und Poliklinik für Urologie, Medizinische Einrichtungen der Universität Bonn, Sigmund-Freud-Straße 25, 53127, Bonn, Deutschland, Timo.Strunk@ukb.uni-bonn.de. | | Source | Urologe A 2007 Jul 21. | | Abstract | Alveolar soft part sarcoma is a rare soft tissue tumor. Most patients who are affected by this sarcoma are between 15 and 35 years old. The tumor is characterized by its uncommon location of metastasis. Publications concerning this sarcoma subform are rare and the best therapeutic procedure is not yet clear. Surgical excision, radiation and chemotherapy are performed, whereas complete surgical excision achieves the best results in long-term follow-up. We report a patient's history who rapidly died of his sickness despite the low initial tumor stage. | | Language | GER | | Pub Type(s) | JOURNAL ARTICLE
