Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main aim of the study is evaluate quality of life and motor performance of patients with soft tissue sarcomas undergoing surgical treatment and post-operative rehabilitation treatment.

Primary objectives:

* Identification of clinical characteristics and motor damage after surgery for soft tissue sarcomas;
* Impact of perioperative treatments and surgery on the quality of life of patients with soft tissue sarcomas;
* Impact of post-operative rehabilitation treatment on quality of life and recovery of motor activity The primary endpoint will be the improvement in the Toronto Extremity Salvage Score (TESS) between T1 (post-surgery) and T3 (at the end of rehabilitation treatment).

Secondary endpoints will be:

1\. the evolution over the various timepoints of the selected rating scales (Toronto Extremity Salvage Score, Musculoskeletal Tumor Society Rating Scale, Numerical Rating Scale, Brief Pain Questionnaire, Douleur Neuropathique en 4 Questions, Leeds Assessment of Neuropathic Symptoms and Signs Scale, European Organization for Research and Treatment of Cancer, Quality-of-Life Questionnaire (QLQ)-C30, Short Form Health Survey 36);

• The change in walking performance before and after the rehabilitation treatment.
