Perspectives on Low-grade Sarcomas: The Extraordinary Contributions of Sharon W. Weiss, MD

Soft-tissue pathology encompasses a wide spectrum of neoplasms that represent some of the most challenging and problematic tumors in surgical pathology. Owing to the intensive work of dedicated pathologists, this once esoteric field has become increasingly well defined. In this review, Dr Sharon Weiss' monumental contributions to low-grade sarcomas, including low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma/so-called hyalinizing spindle cell tumor, atypical lipomatous tumor/well-differentiated liposarcoma and dedifferentiated liposarcoma, epithelioid hemangioendothelioma, and dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans with fibrosarcomatous transformation will be discussed.
