Abstract

Soft tissue tumors represent some of the most interesting neoplasms found in man and animals. Problems remain as to pathogenesis, classification, and nomenclature, the solutions of which are necessary to permit predictions of biologic behavior. Soft tissue tumors have generally been classified as to morphology and histogenesis. In undifferentiated malignant soft tissue tumors, purely morphological diagnoses, such as spindle cell sarcoma, round cell sarcoma or pleomorphic cell sarcoma, are easily made; but such terms do not give reliable information as to prognosis and therapy. For instance, the diagnosis “spindle cell sarcoma” may include the locally invasive but rarely metastasizing fibrosarcoma. A histogenetic classification appears more useful in differentiating these tumors, especially with respect to prognosis and therapy.
