✦ Synopsis

We have assessed the ability of the American Joint Committee System, the Hajdu and the Surgical Staging System to separate different prognostic groups of patients with soft-tissue sarcoma. There were 122 patients with nonmetastatic tumours of the locomotor system. All were operated on with a wide, or radical, surgical margin. None of the staging systems could identify more than two groups with significantly different overall survival. A plea is made for the use of statistical multivariate analysis of prognostic factors when constructing staging systems for soft-tissue sarcoma.

## Background: The predictive value of histologic grading and staging systems for overall survival in different types of adult soft tissue sarcoma of the extremities and trunk is unclear. ## Methods: Histologic slides from 193 patients with primary tumors were reviewed for diagnosis, and ki-67 (m
