Abstract
BACKGROUND Brain metastasis (BM) is an uncommon complication of sarcomas with a poor prognosis. Little information is available about the feasibility and prognostic factors of surgical resection of BM from sarcomas. METHODS This study involved a retrospective analysis of 22 patients with BM from sarcomas who underwent resection at six institutes in Japan. Prognostic factors were analyzed to develop a graded prognostic assessment (GPA) using the log-rank test and Cox regression analysis. For validation of this GPA, we collected data on 100 surgical cases from 48 published reports. RESULTS Postoperative Karnofsky Performance Status (KPS) improved in 50% of our patients. Median overall survival (OS) was 21 months. Multivariate analysis showed age and alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) were significant preoperative prognostic factors (P < 0.05). RTOG-RPA classification had no significant prognostic value. We developed a GPA system for OS after resection of BM. A score of 0 was assigned to patients aged 18-29 years with non-ASPS, 2 to patients aged 18-29 years with ASPS or 30-76 years with non-ASPS, and 4 to patients aged 30-76 years with ASPS. Median OS for patients with GPA scores of 0, 2, and 4 were 6.5, 16.0, and 44.0 months, respectively (P = 0.002). The results were validated by the data of 100 cases compiled (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION Median OS of patients with BM from sarcomas was comparable to that from carcinomas after resection. A new sarcoma-specific GPA may help patients and clinicians to select resection as an option for treatment of BM from sarcomas.

Resection of pancreatic and splenic metastases from alveolar soft part sarcoma: a case report. Surg Case Rep 2020; 6:139.

Abstract
Background We present a case of pancreatic and splenic metastases following alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS), which was successfully treated by surgery. Case presentation A 41-year-old male was referred to our hospital in 2012. Computed tomography (CT) showed the presence of a pancreatic tumor. In 2002, the patient had undergone surgical resection of an ASPS of the anal region. In 2009, during follow-up, CT revealed lung metastases, which prompted surgical resection of the lung, followed by resection of the head skin in 2011. Abdominal ultrasonography (US) revealed the presence of isodense masses sized 34 mm in the pancreatic head and 60 mm within the spleen. The contrast-enhanced US revealed a solitary lesion with enhancement. Contrast-enhanced CT revealed solitary lesions with enhancement within the pancreatic head, spleen, and liver. The patient underwent metastasectomies from the pancreas, spleen, and liver. The patient was discharged on postoperative day 22 without recurrence for 18 months after metastasectomy. Twelve years after primary resection and 2 years after metastasectomy, the patient died as a consequence of multiple metastases. Conclusions We have presented a rare case of pancreatic and spleen metastases from ASPS. Resection by radical metastasectomy was successful without morbidity. Thus, for improved survival of patients with multiple metastases from ASPS, metastasectomy may be indicated. If multiple metastases are resectable, surgical approaches may be the preferred treatment.
