Soft tissue sarcomas (STS) are rare and heterogeneous group of mesenchymal cell tumors, accounting for only 1% of all malignances. Every year about 3700 new cases of STS are registered in Russia, while the annual increase rate was 6.45% in 2019. Randomized studies confirm the feasibility of combination therapy for STS. The review contains a comprehensive description of the proposed methods of combined treatment of STS. Advantages, disadvantages, directions and features of various methods of radiation therapy for STS are shown on the examples of scientific research of recent years.
