Data on 267 adults with high-grade soft tissue sarcomas were reviewed. Male sex, large tumor size, Stage IIIC, IV A and sarcomatous skin invasion, as well as marginal excision, amputation, postoperative fever and wound infection, were found to be associated with shorter survival time. Head and neck location, multifocal growth of sarcoma. Stage IIIC, malignant skin infiltration, locally recurrent tumor as well as marginal excision and limb-sparing resection, were found to influence local control unfavorably in single factor analyses. Each of the significant variables were entered into a multivariate proportional hazards model in a stepwise manner. Stage, postoperative fever, the surgical margin and type of surgery, and sarcomatous skin changes significantly affected survival time. Local recurrence was significantly affected by the surgical margin and type of surgery, the status of tumor (primary or recurrent), stage and malignant skin infiltration.
