Management of soft tissue sarcomas of the chest wall: a comprehensive overview. J Thorac Dis 2024; 16:3484-3492. [PMID: 38883634 PMCID: PMC11170428 DOI: 10.21037/jtd-23-1149] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024]
Abstract
Sarcomas of the chest wall are rare and their current treatment regimen is diverse and complex due to the heterogeneity of these tumors as well as the variations in tumor location and extent. They only account for 0.04% of newly diagnosed cancers of whom about 45% comprise soft tissue sarcomas. Larger cohort studies are scarce and often focus on one specific treatment item. We therefore aim to provide helicopter view for clinicians treating patients with sarcomas of the chest wall, focusing mainly on soft tissue sarcomas. This overview includes the value of neoadjuvant systemic or radiotherapy, surgical resection, approaches for thoracic wall reconstruction, and the need for follow-up. Provided the heterogeneity and relative rarity, we recommend that treatment decisions in soft tissue sarcoma of the chest wall are discussed in a multidisciplinary tumor board at a reference sarcoma center or within sarcoma networks to ensure personalized, rational decision making. A surgical oncologist specialized in sarcoma surgery is crucial, and for extensive resections involving the thoracic cavity we recommend involvement of a thoracic surgeon. In addition, a specialized medical- and radiation oncologist as well as a plastic surgeon is required to ensure the best multimodality treatment plan to optimize patient outcome.

Chen CC, Wu YY, Kao JT, Chang CH, Huang SC, Shih HN. Impact of resection margin on outcome in soft-tissue sarcomas of the extremities treated with limb-sparing surgery and postoperative radiotherapy. World J Surg Oncol 2024; 22:113. [PMID: 38664776 PMCID: PMC11046795 DOI: 10.1186/s12957-024-03380-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 04/06/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The standard curative treatments for extremity soft tissue sarcoma (ESTS) include surgical resection with negative margins and perioperative radiotherapy. However, the optimal resection margin remains controversial. This study aimed to evaluate the outcomes in ESTS between microscopically positive margin (R1) and microscopically negative margin (R0) according to the Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) (R + 1 mm) classification. METHODS Medical records of patients with localized ESTS who underwent primary limb-sparing surgery and postoperative radiotherapy between 2004 and 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were followed for at least 5 years or till local or distant recurrence was diagnosed during follow-up. Outcomes were local and distal recurrences and survival. RESULTS A total of 52 patients were included in this study, in which 17 underwent R0 resection and 35 underwent R1 resection. No significant differences were observed in rates of local recurrence (11.4% vs. 35.3%, p = 0.062) or distant recurrence (40.0% vs. 41.18%, p = 0.935) between R0 and R1 groups. Multivariate analysis showed that distant recurrences was associated with a Fédération Nationale des Centres de Lutte Contre le Cancer (FNCLCC) grade (Grade III vs. I, adjusted hazard ratio (aHR): 12.53, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.67-58.88, p = 0.001) and tumor location (lower vs. upper extremity, aHR: 0.23, 95% CI: 0.07-0.7, p = 0.01). Kaplan-Meier plots showed no significant differences in local (p = 0.444) or distant recurrent-free survival (p = 0.161) between R0 and R1 groups. CONCLUSIONS R1 margins, when complemented by radiotherapy, did not significantly alter outcomes of ESTS as R0 margins. Further studies with more histopathological types and larger cohorts are necessary to highlight the path forward.

Abstract
The survival outcomes of patients with chest wall sarcomas (CWS) were evaluated after receiving wide excision and chest wall reconstruction by using three-dimensional printed (3DP) implants. The survival outcomes evaluating the effect of 3DP implants for chest wall reconstruction is lacking. Here, forty-nine patients with CWS underwent radical wide excision and chest wall reconstruction using 3DP implants. The surgical data and long-term survival outcomes were collected and analyzed. With a median follow-up of 36 months, the disease-free survival (DFS) and overall survival (OS) were 31.7% and 58.5%, respectively. In addition, the 3-year DFS and OS can be significantly differentiated using the classification criteria of tumor grade, tumor size tumor area. Hence, wide excision and chest wall reconstruction using three-dimensional printed implants are a safe and effective treatment for chest wall sarcoma. The novel classification criteria of tumor size and area have the potential to predict the prognosis of CWS.

Abstract
The heterogeneity of thoracic wall tumors often represents challenging clinical entities for surgeons due to diagnostic and treatment complexities. The primary tumors, metastases, or direct invasion from intrathoracic structures comprise almost half of all cases on average that are proved to be malignant. Surgery treatment usually leaves large chest defects that require further extensive reconstruction and multimodal management including radiotherapy and chemotherapy. We report a rare case of a giant (30 cm) post-traumatic bleeding thoracic sarcoma treatment in a 70-year-old female. The use of our modified Verneuil technique to close the extensive postoperative skin defect optimized surgical wound management and provided good functional and aesthetic results. Four-year follow-up outcomes after surgical and adjuvant radiation therapy reported a high level of tumor control and showed no evidence of postoperative disease recurrence.

Abstract
PURPOSE Despite anatomical differences, truncal soft tissue sarcomas (STS) often are grouped with extremity sarcomas. We evaluated the clinical outcome of patients with truncal STS who underwent gross total resection (GTR) and radiation therapy (RT), with special emphasis on those treated with intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT). METHODS From January 1, 2001 to December 31, 2018, 64 patients received GTR and RT, where 48 patients were male, 35 patients were aged ≤ 60 years, and 48 patients had tumors ≤ 10 cm. Sixty-two tumors were high grade, 36 were in the chest wall, 7 in the abdominal wall, and 21 were paraspinal. During surgery, 7 received mesh reconstruction, and 6 received flap closure. R0 resection was achieved in 53 patients. Thirteen patients received chemotherapy. RESULTS With a median follow-up of 57 months, the 5-year actuarial local control (LC) was 71%. In the IMRT subset (50/64, 78%), the 5-year LC for the chest/abdominal wall was 84%, and 69% for the paraspinal subsite. Grade 2+ radiation dermatitis was seen in 21 of 64 (33%) patients, 5 of 64 (8%) developed noninfectious wound complications, 5 of 64 (8%) developed infectious wound complications, and 1 of 64 (2%) developed grade 2 chest wall pain. No additional grade 2+ late toxicity was observed. CONCLUSIONS Based on this study, achieving LC in truncal STS treated with GTR and RT remains challenging even with IMRT (5-year LC: 78%). While the use of IMRT was more promising for tumors of the chest/abdominal wall with 5-year LC of 84%, it was 69% for those located in the paraspinal subsite, indicating a need for further improvement.

Abstract
Chest wall tumors are a relatively uncommon disease in clinical practice. Most of the published studies about chest wall tumors are usually single-center retrospective studies, involving few patients. Therefore, evidences regarding clinical conclusions about chest wall tumors are lacking, and some controversial issues have still to be agreed upon. In January 2019, 73 experts in thoracic surgery, plastic surgery, science, and engineering jointly released the Chinese Expert Consensus on Chest Wall Tumor Resection and Chest Wall Reconstruction (2018 edition). After that, numerous experts put forward new perspectives on some academic issues in this version of the consensus, pointing out the necessity to further discuss the points of contention. Thus, we conducted a survey through the administration of a questionnaire among 85 experts in the world. Consensus has been reached on some major points as follows. (I) Wide excision should be performed for desmoid tumor (DT) of chest wall. After excluding the distant metastasis by multi-disciplinary team, solitary sternal plasmacytoma can be treated with extensive resection and adjuvant radiotherapy. (II) Wide excision with above 2 cm margin distance should be attempted to obtain R0 resection margin for chest wall tumor unless the tumor involves vital organs or structures, including the great vessels, heart, trachea, joints, and spine. (III) For patients with chest wall tumors undergoing unplanned excision (UE) for the first time, it is necessary to carry out wide excision as soon as possible within 1–3 months following the previous surgery. (IV) Current Tumor Node Metastasis staging criteria (American Joint Committee on Cancer) of bone tumor and soft tissue sarcoma are not suitable for chest wall sarcomas. (V) It is necessary to use rigid implants for chest wall reconstruction once the maximum diameter of the chest wall defect exceeds 5 cm in adults and adolescents. (VI) For non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) invading the chest wall, wide excision with neoadjuvant and/or adjuvant therapy are recommended for patients with stage T3-4N0-1M0. As clear guidelines are lacking, these consensus statements on controversial issues on chest wall tumors and resection could possibly serve as further guidance in clinical practice during the upcoming years.

Abstract
In Soft Tissue Sarcomas (STS) referral centre many patients have already had an incomplete tumour resection. In the majority of specimen, tumoral residual is detected and linked to a worsen prognosis. Systematic surgical re-resection of the scar tissue area is often performed. Some authors suggested to postpone re-resections until a clinically evident local recurrence is detected. A searching strategy was applied to Pubmed-Central and Ovid Medline. Odds ratio (OR) for local recurrence (LR), distant metastasis (MTS) or overall survival (OS) were calculated comparing patients who had tumour residual to people who hadn't. OR of local recurrences, distant metastasis and OS were calculated in planned vs unplanned-excisions groups. OR to develop a metastasis and OS after a local recurrences were calculated. Residual tumour led to an OR for LR of 3,56, OR of MTS was 3,42; OR of decreased OS was 3,42. Having a LR lead to a OR of 1,55 for MTS and to a OR of decreased OS of 2,32. Patients who underwent a re-excision compared to planned surgery did not have an increased OR of LR and had an OR to develop a MTS of 0,56. Our data confirm that there is a strong correlation between local recurrences, distant relapses and overall survival. Although there is a selection bias; this analysis highlights the optimal oncological outcome in patients who underwent re-resection. The rationale for systematic re-resection after unplanned excision of soft tissue sarcomas is very strong and this treatment remains the gold standard of care in these patients.

IGF2BP3 (IMP3) expression in angiosarcoma, epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, and benign vascular lesions. Diagn Pathol 2020; 15:26. [PMID: 32293476 PMCID: PMC7087384 DOI: 10.1186/s13000-020-00951-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/27/2019] [Accepted: 03/19/2020] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Insulin-like growth factor-2 messenger RNA-binding protein 3 (IGF2BP3 or IMP3) is an oncofetal protein that is expressed in various cancer types, and its expression is often associated with poor prognosis. IGF2BP3 expression has not been fully settled in vascular lesions. Methods We evaluated the expression of IGF2BP3 in malignant (angiosarcoma and epithelioid hemangioendothelioma [EHE]) and benign (hemangioma, granulation tissue cappilaries, and pyogenic granuloma) vascular lesions using immunohistochemistry. IGF2BP3 expression was scored as negative (0% of endothelial/neoplastic cells), equivocal (1–25%), or positive (> 26%). Results Eight of 30 (26.7%) cases of angiosarcoma and two of five (40%) cases of epithelioid hemangioendothelioma were positive for IGF2BP3. In contrast, hemangiomas (10 cases) and granulation tissue capillaries (12 cases) were all negative for IGF2BP3, and some cases of pyogenic granuloma (six of 14 cases) was scored as equivocal. In angiosarcoma, IGF2BP3 expression was independent of age, gender, location, morphological pattern, prognosis, presence of metastatic foci, and PD-L1 expression. Conclusions IGF2BP3 is a useful marker to distinguish between malignant and benign vascular lesions.

The Impact of Surgical Margins and Adjuvant Radiotherapy in Patients with Undifferentiated Pleomorphic Sarcomas of the Extremities: A Single-Institutional Analysis of 192 Patients. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12020362. [PMID: 32033261 PMCID: PMC7072160 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12020362] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/01/2020] [Revised: 01/28/2020] [Accepted: 02/03/2020] [Indexed: 12/30/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcomas are a frequent subtype within the heterogeneous group of soft tissue sarcomas. As the attainment of negative margins can be complicated at the extremities, we determined the prognostic significance of surgical margins in our patient population. Methods: We retrospectively determined the relationship between local recurrence-free survival (LRFS), overall survival (OS), and potential prognostic factors in 192 patients with UPS of the extremities who were suitable for surgical treatment in curative intent. The median follow-up time was 5.1 years. Results: The rates of LRFS and OS after 2 years were 75.7% and 87.2% in patients with R0-resected primary tumors and 49.1% and 81.8% in patients with R1/R2-status (LRFS: p = 0.013; OS: p = 0.001). Adjuvant radiotherapy significantly improved LRFS (5-year: 67.6% vs. 48.4%; p < 0.001) and OS (5-year: 82.8 vs. 61.8; p = 0.016). Both, negative margins and adjuvant radiotherapy were found to be independent prognostic factors in multivariate analysis. Conclusions: The data from this study could underscore the beneficial prognostic impact of negative margins on LRFS and OS. However, the width of negative margins seemed to be not relevant. Notably, adjuvant radiotherapy was not only able to decrease the risk of local failure but also improved OS in a significant manner.

Negative Impact of Wound Complications on Oncologic Outcome of Soft Tissue Sarcomas of the Chest Wall. Cancers (Basel) 2019; 12:cancers12010101.

Abstract
A link of complications with worse oncologic prognosis has been established for multiple malignancies, while the limited literature on soft-tissue sarcomas is inconclusive. The aim of this study was to examine risk factors and the oncologic impact of wound complications after curative resection of primary soft-tissue sarcomas of the chest wall. Patients with primary soft tissue sarcomas of the chest wall were identified. Groups with and without wound complications were compared by using univariate and multivariate analysis to identify risk factors. For patients with clear surgical margins (R0), univariate and multivariate analysis of factors associated with 5-year local recurrence free survival (LRFS), metastasis free survival (MFS), and disease specific survival (DSS) were performed. A total of 102 patients were included in the study. Wound complications occurred in 11 patients (10.8%) within 90 days. Cardiovascular morbidity and operation time represented independent risk factors for wound complications. In 94 patients with clear surgical margins, those with wound complications had an estimated 5-year LRFS of 30% versus 72.6% and a 5-year DSS of 58.3% versus 82.1%. Wound complications could be identified as an independent predictor for worse LRFS and DSS. Patients with a high risk of wound complications should be identified and strategies implemented to reduce surgical complications and possibly improve oncologic prognosis.
