Liposarcoma subtype recurrence and survival: A UK regional cohort study.

Background: Clinical outcome data in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States have yet to facilitate appropriately specific surveillance for liposarcoma histological subtypes, despite being one of the most common soft tissue sarcomas. Therefore, this study aims to demonstrate histologic-specific differences in liposarcoma recurrence, disease progression, and survival and discuss the implications.

Methods And Findings: This cohort study involves patients from a regional sarcoma service in the UK who have had a primary surgical excision of liposarcoma between October 2002 and September 2019.
