Abstract
The journal Cancer has played a critical role in advancing our understanding of sarcoma, a remarkable cluster of malignancies that arise from tissues of mesenchymal origin throughout the human body and indeed across the entire vertebrate animal spectrum. Approximately equally divided between soft tissue and bone origin, there are greater than 100 recognized histologic subtypes that collectively account for approximately 2% of adult solid tumors.
