Translation and Cross-Cultural Adaptation of the Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS) for Latin American Spanish-Speaking Patients With Limb Sarcoma: Latin American Spanish TESS Adaptation.

This study aims to translate and culturally adapt the Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS) for Latin American Spanish-speaking patients, enhancing the tool's accessibility for evaluating postsurgical functional outcomes in sarcoma patients across Latin America. The TESS questionnaires for lower extremity (LE) and upper extremity (UE) were translated and adapted following international guidelines. The process included forward and backward translation, expert committee review, and pretesting with cognitive interviewing.
