[Isolated limb perfusion for liposarcoma : Histopathological response and subgroup analysis after TNF melphalan-based ILP].

The histopathological response of LS toward TM-ILP is equally good compared to non-lipomatous STS. Myxoid LS seem to have a tendency towards a better response to TM-ILP compared to non-myxoid LS and ALT showed the lowest response rate in the liposarcoma subgroup. Furthermore, we found that TM-ILP seems to facilitate successful R0 resection. Due to the low number of cases in the subgroups we advocate further research on this topic.
