Sarcoma is a rare cancer that comes from in the bones, muscles, fat, blood vessels, or connective tissues. It makes up approximately 1% of all cancers in adults but is more common in children and young adults. Sarcomas are classified into two main categories: bone sarcomas (affecting bones) and soft tissue sarcomas (affecting muscles, fat, and other tissues).
Sarcoma's fundamental cause is frequently unclear, although environmental exposures, genetic factors, and some inherited disorders can raise the risk. Pain, swelling, and the development of a lump—typically in the belly or limbs—are typical signs.
