“…The Scandinavian treatment policy, pioneered by Stener in 1978, 7 is to refer all patients with tumors that are larger than 5 cm or are deep to a sarcoma center before biopsy or surgery. The percentage of patients with soft-tissue sarcomas referred before biopsy ranges from 60 to 80% 8,9 —rates that are much higher than those observed in this study and several others. 10-12 However, consistent with the results of the current analysis, the Scandinavian studies found that lesions were more likely to have been biopsied before referral if they were small or superficial.…”

“…Since tumors <50 mm in diameter are likely to be benign, as previously stated, 3 we performed arthroscopic marginal resection without biopsy. 15 The tumor proved to be a benign lipoma on pathological examination. Although careful follow-up is warranted, this case suggests that deep tumors under the rotator cuff muscles can be safely resected using arthroscopy.…”
