Tumor size is a key prognostic variable for soft tissue sarcomas (STS), and a tumor diameter of 5 cm is generally used as a cutoff for risk grouping purposes. This study aimed to investigate the prognostic effect of tumor size on overall survival and whether such an effect was influenced by the patient's size, expressed as body-surface area (BSA), in a series of 553 pediatric patients with localized STS.
