Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: p53 mutations are the most frequently observed tumor-related genetic changes. Mutational analysis concerns mostly carcinomas and is not comprehensive for soft tissue sarcomas. Among soft tissue sarcomas, malignant fibrous histiocytoma (MFH) and liposarcoma represent the most frequent...
