Overview

Soft tissue sarcoma derived their name from the greek term for a fleshy lump. Around 460 B.C, Hippocrates recognized soft tissue tumors in the arm and thigh in older people and recommended the removal by knife as therapy. In 200 C.E., a greek physician named Galen suggested that these lumps were cancerous tumors. The exact cause of leiomyosarcoma still is not well understood because of rarety of disease.

Historical Perspective

  • Soft tissue sarcoma derived their name from the Greek term for a fleshy lump.[1]
  • Around 460 B.C, Hippocrates recognized soft tissue tumors in the arm and thigh in older people and recommended the removal by knife as therapy. [2]
  • Around 200 C.E., a greek physician named Galen suggested that these lumps were cancerous tumors.[3]
  • In 1809, an Edinburg surgeon, Wardrop describes the first illustration of amputation and used the term "soft cancer".[4]
  • In 1816, Charles Bell, used the term soft tissue sarcoma to differentiate it form carcinoma.[5]
  • In 1804, Abernethy describes the first classification of the sarcoma.[6]
  • In 1932, Stout published a litreature on the pathology and treatment of sarcoma.[7]
  • In 1982, Rosenberg evaluated limb-sparing surgery with adjuvant radiotherapy compared with major amputation.[8]
