This week's episode covers everything we need to know about soft tissue sarcomas.There are so many sarcomas it can feel a bit overwhelming, so this episode breaks it down into what we need to know as general surgeons, and for the exam. It features some of my discussions on this topic with the incredible Dr Julie Howle - a surgical oncologist from Westmead Hospital in Sydney.In particular we cover:- soft tissue sarcoma subtypes, presentation,  workup, and management- when to investigate a lipoma (which could be an atypical lipomatous tumour)- and finish off with desmoids (which came up in our recent VIVA exam!!)DisclaimerThe information in this podcast is intended as a revision aid for the purposes of the General Surgery Fellowship Exam.This information is not to be considered to include any recommendations or medical advice by the author or publisher or any other person.
