Conclusions 1. These margin definitions   (CTV: radial 1-1.5 cm & longitudinal 3.5 cm, PTV: CTV + 0.5-0.8 cm) appear appropriate for the majority of patients. 2. Patients with positive margin are at highest risk for LF & may be treated more aggressively. 3. Wound complication rate was comparable to other studies. 4. Wound complications were significantly related to the  Vol. of resected specimen, CTV, and presence of diabetes.

Editor's Notes

  1. Radiation is widely used in extremity STS, pre or postoperatively. It has some potential advantages including increasing R0 resection and possible limb preservation. But it also has disadvantage of wound complications. Irradiated volume is considered one of the important factor affecting wound complications and late morbidities. So more efforts should be needed to reduce the irradiated volume.
  2. There is no consensus on the preoperative treatment volume for extremity soft tissue sarcoma. In several studies, the reported treatment volumes are very heterogeneous. Radial margins range from 2 cm to the entire compartment. And longitudinal margins are from 5 to 10 cm.
  3. To elucidate optimal radiation field, we retrospectively analyzed the pattern of local failures in the patients treated with preoperative RT using CT simulation. We also evaluate other results and prognostic factors.
  4. From July 2000 to Dec 2006, 56 patients treated at Mass General Hospital were included. Median FU was 41 months for all patients and 46 months for alive patients. Median age was 50.6 years old. 76.8% were lower extremities and thigh was the most common site in 31 patients.
  5. For pathologic confirmation, core needle biopsy was the most common used in 40 patients. Malignant Fibrous Histiocytoma was the most common histological subtype in 1/3 of the patients followed by liposarcoma and synovial sarcoma.
  6. 52 patients had high grade tumor and median clinical tumor size was 8 cm. Clinical stage was one in 4 patients, two in 14 and three in 38 patients.
  7. 21 patients received chemotherapy and MAID was the most commonly used regimen. Preoperatively, median 50 Gy was delivered using median 2 Gy fraction size. Postoperative boost was given to the patients with positive or multiple close resection margins. 12 patients received median 15 Gy tumor bed boost.
  8. Gross tumor volume was defined as the T1 contrast enhancing area on MRI. Clinical target volume was enlarged from GTV with 1-1.5 cm radial and 3.5 cm longitudinal margins. No less than 95% of the prescribed dose was delivered to PTV.
  9. Surgery was delivered at median 34 days after preoperative RT. All patients received limb preserving surgery and 50 patients received R0 resection. But only 6 patients, including 4 with no residual disease, had resection margins larger than 1 cm. 41 patients received primary wound closure.
  10. Clinical responses were evaluable in 47 patients. SD was most common in 37 patients and three patients showed disease progression on restaging MRI. But all showed marked necrosis (80, 90 and more than 95%) on surgical specimen. 9 patients received unplanned excision. 6 patients had residual disease ranged from 2 – 4 cm. There was no treatment failure in these patients.
  11. 5 Year overall survival was 82.8%. Disease free survival was 77.5% and freedom free distant metastasis was 80.0% at 5 years. If only considering first failure, actuarial local control rate was 93.2% at 5 years. Including 2 patients who had distant metastasis first, and then developed local failure later, actuarial local control rate was 88.5% at 5 years.
  12. As previously stated, three patients developed initial local failure and 2 patients developed late local failures. Only 1 patient had isolated local failure at last follow-up. All the local recurrences developed within the irradiated volume. But for 2 patients, local failures also extended to outside of the irradiated volume. For those two, 1 patient was treated with small CTV due to anatomic location of foot . The other, received unplanned incisional biopsy. had positive margin during operation. But further resection was not done for limb preservation. Distant metastases occurred in a total of 11 patients at median of 12 months. Lung was the most common site of metastasis.
  13. On univariate analyses, clinical stage and size, pathologic stage and size were significant prognostic factors on overall survival, disease free survival and freedom free distant metastasis. For local control, pathologic size and margin status were significant .
  14. All 3 initial local failures occurred in the patients with positive margin . 2 late local failures occurred in the patients with less than 1 mm resection margin. Margin status is a significant predictor for local control using three different commonly used definitions: positive or negative, less than 1 mm or less than and equal to 1 mm.
  15. On multivariate analysis, resection margin defined as positive or negative was the only definition that showed significant association with local control. For overall survival, age and clinical size were significant. Pathologic stage was the only significant factor on disease free survival and freedom free distant metastasis
  16. Major wound complications occurred in 17 patients. Twelve patients needed secondary operation for wound care. The volume of resected specimen, Clinical target volume and Diabetes were related to wound complications. For chronic complications, bone fractures occurred in 3 patients within irradiated area. But they also received periosteal peeling or bone resection. There was no complication requiring amputation or significant functional loss.
  17. In conclusion, for 3D treatment planning for extremity soft tissue sarcoma in the neo-adjuvant setting, theses margin definitions appear appropriate for the majority of patients. Patients with positive margin are considered at high risk for local failure. So more aggressive treatment may be needed. Wound complication rate was comparable to other studies and related to the volume of resected specimen, clinical target volume and presence of diabetes.
  18. Thank you very much!
  19. Acute skin reaction occurred in 52 patients. Most of skin toxicities were RTOG grade one or two. One patient showed grade 4 skin necrosis, but he also had skin involvement before preoperative RT on physical exam and MRI.
  20. All Local failures occurred usually occurred within GTV or CTV.
