Summary

This study is about preparing people with cancerous tumours, soft-tissue sarcoma (STS), in the leg to recover more quickly from surgery. Prehabilitation or "surgery school" is done before surgery while undergoing other cancer-related treatments. To test this idea, two groups will be formed. One group will have the prehabilitation program and the other group will have the same amount of attention from the research team who will visit them at the time of the radiotherapy sessions to provide support and any information they may need.The results of the study will indicate whether it is a good idea to conduct a bigger study that would involve many centres in Canada.
