Treatment of Localized Myxofibrosarcoma

Clinical Scenario

This protocol addresses patients with localized myxofibrosarcoma — disease confined to its primary site without distant spread. The infiltrative growth pattern of this tumor makes achieving adequate surgical margins a central and challenging clinical priority.

Treatment Approach (partial overview)

Surgical resection is the standard treatment for localized disease, with the procedure designed to achieve clear margins around the tumor. Radiation therapy may also be part of the treatment strategy. The specific surgical parameters, margin requirements, and the full role of radiation are detailed in the structured protocol.

Primary goal: Negative surgical margins (R0 resection)

Full regimen details, margin specifications, and radiation guidance are available via the protocol below.

Radiation therapy (RT) can be used as neoadjuvant/adjuvant treatment strategies to improve local tumor control.
A resection with an R0 margin is more challenging for MFS due to its infiltrative growth.
