Article Synopsis
- Preoperative radiotherapy for soft tissue sarcoma increases the likelihood of major wound complications after surgery, prompting a study to create a predictive nomogram.
- The analysis was based on 126 patients treated at Oxford University Hospital from 2007 to 2021, identifying age, tumor size, and metastasis as key independent risk factors for complications.
- The developed nomogram achieved a sensitivity of 0.90 and specificity of 0.76, with an AUC of 0.86, demonstrating its effectiveness in predicting major wound complications post-surgery.
