Two hundred and ninety patients with soft tissue sarcomas (STS) in Osaka, Japan, were reviewed. The patients' ages ranged from one month to 84 years (mean 51 years) with a male to female ratio of 1.23:1. The tumors were located in the extremities (120 cases), the trunk (76 cases), the abdominal cavity (40 cases), and the head and neck (43 cases). Histologically the tumors were classified as malignant fibrous histiocytoma (101 cases, 34.8%), liposarcoma (28 cases, 9.7%), synovial sarcoma (24 cases, 8.3%), rhabdomyosarcoma (23 cases, 7.9%), neurogenic sarcoma (20 cases, 6.9%), fibrosarcoma (16 cases, 5.5%), leiomyosarcoma (16 cases, 5.5%) and others. From the present study, it appears that there are no significant differences between STS in Japan and Western countries with regard to the distributions of histological type and primary site.
对日本大阪的290例软组织肉瘤(STS)患者进行了回顾性研究。患者年龄从1个月至84岁不等(平均51岁),男女比例为1.23:1。肿瘤位于四肢(120例)、躯干(76例)、腹腔(40例)和头颈部(43例)。组织学上,肿瘤分类为恶性纤维组织细胞瘤(101例,34.8%)、脂肪肉瘤(28例,9.7%)、滑膜肉瘤(24例,8.3%)、横纹肌肉瘤(23例,7.9%)、神经源性肉瘤(20例,6.9%)、纤维肉瘤(16例,5.5%)、平滑肌肉瘤(16例,5.5%)及其他类型。从本研究来看,日本的软组织肉瘤与西方国家在组织学类型和原发部位分布方面似乎没有显著差异。
