Overview
Sarcoma is a malignant tumour of mesenchymal origin, arising from connective and supporting tissues such as muscle, bone, cartilage, fat, fibrous tissue and vasculature, in contrast to the epithelial carcinomas. Sarcomas are biologically diverse, comprising many histological subtypes that differ in anatomical site, age distribution, genetic drivers and clinical behaviour, and they frequently present as an enlarging, often painless mass that may be advanced at recognition. Their tendency to local infiltration and haematogenous spread, together with histological mimicry of benign lesions, makes accurate pathological classification, grading and increasingly molecular characterization central to management, which combines surgery with radiation and systemic therapy. Work in this area covers primary breast sarcoma, low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma, experimental study of membrane resistance in hepatocytes bearing Sarcoma-45, evolution of solid tumour-cell properties in vitro, soft-tissue perineurioma and angiomatoid fibrous histiocytoma, differentiation of second malignant neoplasm from metastasis in a treated medulloblastoma case, identification of a novel biomarker for uterine leiomyosarcoma, melanoma of the breast with a Smoothened mutation, malignant transformation of a neurofibroma, and leiomyosarcoma of the thyroid gland. The journal publishes peer-reviewed clinical and laboratory research on sarcoma pathology, biomarkers and the biology of mesenchymal malignancy.
