One hundred and fourteen @entity1 with soft tissue @entity242 were seen in the Kuwait Cancer Control Centre over a period of 11 years. Fifty per cent were @entity1821 , @entity1492 and @entity980 . The lower extremity was the commonest site involved, followed by the trunk. Treatment was in most cases surgery and adjuvant radiotherapy. The overall rate of local recurrence was 36%. Local failure was highest in @entity5 (66%). In @entity75 , local recurrence was higher in proximal sites than in distal sites. Twenty-eight per cent of the @entity1 had @entity3 , the lung being the commonest site (68%). The histological type had no bearing on local failure or dissemination. Histopathological grade was found to be an important prognostic indicator, both for @entity177 . The rates of local recurrence and @entity3 were lower in low grade than in high grade @entity5 .
