Abstract
Conclusions Definitive radiotherapy for STS should be considered in clinical situations where no acceptable surgical option is available. Higher radiation doses yield superior tumor control and survival. A rise in complications occurs in patients who receive doses of 68 Gy or more, which provides a therapeutic window for benefit in these patients.
