What it is
A sarcoma of fibrous connective tissue, often in the mouth, skin, or limbs, that tends to grow locally.
How it's treated
Wide surgical removal is the main treatment, frequently combined with radiation because these tumors are prone to regrowing locally.
Outlook
Complete removal, often with radiation, can control fibrosarcoma for a long time. It tends to invade locally more than spread widely.
