Summary
This study follows 100 adults whose retroperitoneal liposarcoma has returned after initial surgery. Researchers will compare outcomes of surgery alone versus radiation and/or chemotherapy before surgery. The goal is to improve treatment decisions and validate a prediction tool for this rare cancer.
