-Because almost all patients with apparently localized disease at diagnosis have occult metastatic disease, multi drug [[chemotherapy]] as well as local disease control with surgery and/or radiation is indicated in the treatment of all patients. Treatment often consists of neo-adjuvant [[chemotherapy]] generally followed by wide or radical excision, and may also include [[radiotherapy]]. Complete excision at the time of biopsy may be performed if malignancy is confirmed at that time. Treatment lengths vary depending on location and stage of the disease at diagnosis. Radical chemotherapy may be as short as 6 treatments at 3 week cycles, however most patients will undergo chemotherapy for 6-12 months and radiation therapy for 5-8 weeks.
