Increasing incidence rates of soft tissue sarcomas? A population-based epidemiologic study and literature review
Annals of Oncology, 10/30/09

Wibmer C et al. – This study has analyzed the most recent data from a European population in comparison with seven international studies. An increase, as postulated elsewhere, could not be confirmed. The incidence rate of STS in Austria ranges in the lower half of the international incidence rates (1.8–5.0 per 100 000 per year). Different inclusion criteria and classifications in the various studies explain the increase of incidence in some studies rather than true increase of STS due to new or accumulated risk factors.
