✦ Synopsis

Abstract

A clinical experience with radiotherapy in 18 patients with alveolar soft‐part sarcoma is presented. Adjuvant radiotherapy was associated with prolonged local control in six of six patients without metastatic disease at diagnosis; later one patient relapsed systematically. Meaningful palliation was achieved in all patients with extra‐skeletal (and possibly skeletal) metastatic disease. Radiation therapy may be beneficial for patients with alveolar soft‐part sarcoma by enhancing local control achieved with limited surgery, by retarding progression of metastatic deposits, and by providing meaningful palliation. © 1994 wiiey‐Liss, inc.
