چکیده
Abstract Background The aim of the study was to assess whether configuration primary soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) on MRI correlates with grade malignancy. Patients and methods 71 patients histologically proven STS were included. Primary examined for configuration, borders, volume MRI. tumors divided into high-grade (G3), intermediate-grade (G2) low-grade (G1) according grading system French Federation Cancer Centers Sarcoma Group (FNCLCC). Results 30 high-grade, 22 19 lesions identified. High- (G3/2) significantly most often appeared as polycyclic/multilobulated (p < 0.001 p = 0.002, respectively). Low-grade mainly showed an ovoid/nodular or streaky 0.008), well-defined borders. appearance high-, intermediate- same All G3/2 17 20 G3 infiltrative High-grade are larger in volume, compared STS. Conclusions Configuration can indicate Higher-grade (G2/3) show a while streaky. Infiltrative behavior might suggest higher-grade

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVE Peripheral tumor growth pattern plays an important role in the local recurrence and metastases of soft tissue sarcoma. This study was to determine the peripheral growth pattern of soft tissue sarcoma by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), explore its correlation to histological grade, and assess biological features of soft tissue sarcoma before operation. METHODS MRI was ...
