A patient who presented to an external center with swelling in the thigh area underwent drainage with a preliminary diagnosis of hematoma, and simultaneously, a pathology sample was taken due to suspicious tissues. The pathology result revealed soft tissue sarcoma. The patient presented to us. Although no metastases were detected in the scans, we performed surgery to completely remove the tumor with wide margins following radiotherapy.
Preoperative examination: MRI shows a heterogeneous mass with irregular borders and surrounding edema, located on the femur in the distal lateral aspect of the left thigh.
During the Operation: Planning to excise the old incision line, the clinical appearance of the removed tumor tissue, and the cavity formed after tumor removal are shown.
