1/ 🚨 When surgery is not enough: time to rethink patient selection in #retroperitoneal #sarcoma. Are we operating on tumor biology we don’t yet understand? In primary RPS, ~20% of patients recur within 6 months after surgery — with survival comparable to unresected patients.

More than 140 experts from around the world came together last week to work toward improving the standard of care for chordoma via upcoming updated consensus guidelines -- a remarkable effort. Grateful to @alegronchi, @AOSpine & all who participated!
June 27, 2025 — 143 specialists from 17 countries and 11 disciplines convened at @INT_Milano to revise the international consensus on the management of localized primary #chordoma. An initiative by @ChordomaFDN , co-branded with @AOSpine. Toward updated, evidence-based guidelines

🔵 New month, new topic! In this case we walk through the management of a Left RPS, from preop to multivisceral resection. Why does it matter? Because in sarcomas, the first treatment makes the difference. 👇Have you ever faced such a case? Share your thoughts below! #Sarcoma
