Case Report of a Recurrent Sarcoma in a 57-Year-Old Female
Abstract
This case report describes the recurrence of sarcoma in a 57-year-old female with no significant medical history.
Following initial surgical excision two years prior, a large mass reappeared in the left flank and was subsequently
removed completely. This case highlights the challenges associated with managing recurrent sarcomas and
underscores the importance of ongoing surveillance.
