Sarcoma refers to a rare, malignant tumor that develops in the body's supporting tissues, such as bone, muscle, fat, and nerves. Soft tissues connect, support and surround other body structures. These include muscle, fat, blood vessels, nerves, tendons and bone joint linings. Sarcoma occurs when abnormal cells multiply uncontrollably, forming tumors that can spread to other parts of the body if left untreated.
