Description

A sarcoma is a type of cancer that can arise in various locations of the body. It can occur in any of the connective tissues, such as bones and soft tissues. There are many subtypes of sarcoma based on the specific tissue and type of cell from which the tumor originates. Sarcomas of the soft tissues are called soft tissue sarcoma. Some of the subtypes of soft tissue sarcoma are liposarcoma, fibrosarcoma and leiomyosarcoma. Exposure to ionizing radiation and alkylating agents can increase the risk of bone sarcoma. This book strives to provide a fair idea about research on sarcoma and to help develop a better understanding of the latest advances within this field. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe. This book will help new researchers by foregrounding their knowledge in this branch.
