Vascular Reconstruction in Extremity Soft Tissue Sarcomas: A Systematic Review and Single‐Arm Meta‐Analysis
Limb-sparing surgery with vascular reconstruction is effective for extremity STS involving major vessels, enabling high limb salvage and favorable long-term survival without compromising oncologic outcomes. However, substantial perioperative morbidity persists, underscoring the need for multidisciplinary care, careful patient selection, and prospective studies to refine indications and enhance quality of life.
