Abstract
Sarcomas are defined as ‘‘radio-induced” (RIS) when the histol-ogy is distinct from the primary lesion, when they arise in the irra-diation field within several years (mean time: 10 yrs) fromradiation exposure. Management of radio-induced sarcomas is challenging. Due to RISs rarity, no specific guidelines are present. A correctpre-operative histological diagnosis is essential but it is not alwayseasy to achieve.
