Long-term Development of Fibrosarcoma in the Practice of Emergency Medical Teams: a Case Report

We present data from three medical rescue team interventions to a patient with a tumour in the left lower leg. The data was obtained from the documentation generated during the interventions: dispatch order record (DOR) and medical emergency treatment report (METR). The patient had a history of the following chronic diseases (ICD-10): E11.8, I50.9, I10, and M15. Two interventions involved patient transportation to a hospital, whereas the third intervention was completed in the patient's home. The fibrosarcoma caused only slight pain. Frequent bleeding from an open cancerous wound was the main problem in this patient. Difficulty in wound healing could have been related to complications of diabetes mellitus and the patients advanced age.PMID:37345628 | DOI:10.5604/01.3001.0053.4746
