| Popis: | The quadriceps muscle group is the most common site for extremity soft-tissue sarcomas. The most common sarcomas at this site are liposarcomas, malignant fibrohistiocytomas, and leiomyosarcomas. Although tumors of the anterior thigh can be extremely large prior to diagnosis, approximately 95% of these lesions may be resected. Today, resections of the anterior thigh compartment are extremely safe and reliable, and the reconstructions produce good functional results. |
