Soft tissue sarcomas referral

All suspected soft tissue sarcomas should be referred to the BSS for investigation and management. This can be done via the two-week cancer wait system directly to the plastic surgical team at Southmead Hospital Bristol. Otherwise cases can be referred directly to the MDM for discussion.
