| | + | feedback4="'''Incorrect'''. One of more of the options selected are incorrect. Choose again." |
| | + | feedback5="'''Correct'''. Synovial cell sarcoma have a greater affinity for lymph node metastasis than subcutaneous STS. Splenic haemangiosarcoma are more systemically aggressive, with microscopic or macroscopic systemic metastasis expected in 90% of cases at diagnosis. Histocytic sarcoma have a much more aggressive, early metastatic pattern. Brachial or lumbar plexus nerve root tumours have a different pattern of local invasion, extend proximally and distally along nerve roots and can invade the spinal cord." |
