Soft Tissue Sarcoma

Soft tissue sarcoma is a type of cancer where tumors grow in the connective tissues that support the body, like muscles, nerves, fat cells, tendons and joint linings. Soft tissue sarcomas can grow anywhere, but they most often grow in the tissue around the arms, legs, shoulders, and stomach. It鈥檚 a rare cancer, and although the cause is not known, you can rely on our pediatric experience to help us identify the cause of your child鈥檚 symptoms, and to help you through every step of your child鈥檚 medical journey.聽
