Yes Possible: Primary sarcomas of breast are rare accounts for less than 1% of breast malignancies, so very few centers have vast experience, need multidisciplinary approach in this case if have negative surgical margins by mastectomy (do not spread to lymph nodes as in ca ), need chemo radiation as a team approach to prevent future recurrence and metastasis, speak to your doctors and look for other opinions.

Surgery + XRT: To prevent local recurrence of most soft tissue sarcomas the most important thing is a complete surgical resection by a swith negative margins. For high grade sarcomas, many centers also use adjuvant radiation therapy as an additional local control measure. A metastatic staging evaluation is very important and the decision of whether to pursue chemotherapy is really up to you and your oncologist.
