<b>The gold standard of treatment for LMS tumors is surgery.  If it is at all possible, surgical resection with wide clear margins is the treatment of choice for any LMS presence. </b> If surgical resection is not possible, then locally advanced or metastatic spread within a limb can be treated either systemically or locally.  

If there is metastatic spread beyond the limb, then a systemic method would probably be best to start with.  Some systemic options are chemotherapy, antiangiogenesis treatment, targeted molecular therapy, immunological.  Look under the Treatments Techniques section for discussions of some of the systemic options.

If the only tumor presence known is in the limb, however, you have the choice of localized treatment.  The advantage of localized treatment is that it spares the rest of the body.  This page investigates some localized treatments.
