## Abstract Monospecific antibodies and indirect immunofluorescence microscopy were used to investigate the presence of cytoskeletal intermediate filaments of the keratin, vimentin and desmin types in 43 soft‐tissue sarcomas. The results showed that vimentin was present in the neoplastic cells of a
Background. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) are potent inducers of bone formation. Functional and immunohistochemical studies have identified BMPs in a subset of osteosarcomas. In the present study, the authors extend the analysis of BMP expression to other bone and soft tissue sarcomas. Methods
Background and Objectives: Soft-tissue sarcomas (STS) represent a diverse histologic group of malignancies at risk for local and distant failure. We studied the impact of late (5 or more years) vs. early recurrence (less than 5 years) on subsequent outcome. Methods: Four hundred sixty-eight patients
