Hypofractionated preoperative radiotherapy for high risk soft tissue sarcomas in a geriatric patient population

Standard therapy for localised, resectable high risk soft tissue sarcomas consists of wide excision and radiotherapy over several weeks. This treatment schedule is hardly feasible in geriatric and frail patients. In order not to withhold radiotherapy from these patients, hypofractionated radiotherap...
