Sarcomas are a type of cancer that can affect many different parts of the body, including the bones, muscles, and connective tissues. While sarcomas can be very serious, they are typically treatable and can be successfully managed with treatments like surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and immunotherapy.
When it comes to whether or not sarcoma can shrink by itself, the answer is that it is possible, but unlikely. Sarcomas are usually caused by abnormal cell growth and while some kinds of tumor can regress spontaneously, sarcomas generally require treatment with one or more of the afore-mentioned methods in order to shrink and/or be eradicated.
It is important to note that even if a sarcoma is shrinking on its own, it is still important for a person to seek medical attention. While medical treatment is required to ensure the cancer does not return, it is also important to monitor any changes in size or symptoms in order to catch any recurrence or spread of the cancer early.
In conclusion, while it is possible for sarcomas to shrink by themselves, it is usually unlikely and medical treatment is usually required in order to ensure the cancer is properly managed. However, it is still important to keep an eye on any changes in size or symptoms in order to catch any recurrence or spread of the cancer early.
