Summary
Malignant bone and soft tissue tumors are rare diseases. In case of a suspected tumor one should strictly apply the algorithm proposed, in order to avoid misdiagnoses and mistreatment. Optimal therapy can only be achieved by close cooperation between the departments involved – oncology, orthopaedic surgery, pathology, plastic surgery, radiology and radiooncology.
Zusammenfassung
Aufgrund der Seltenheit maligner Knochen- und Weichteiltumore sollte bei Tumorverdacht der empfohlene diagnostische Algorithmus strikt eingehalten werden, um Fehldiagnosen und resultierende Fehltherapien zu vermeiden. Das Erzielen einer optimalen Therapie ist nur in enger Kooperation der betroffenen Fachdisziplinen – Onkologie, Orthopädie, Pathologie, Plastische Chirurgie, Radiologie und Strahlentherapie – möglich.
