This phase II trial studies the effect of hypofractionated radiotherapy followed by surgery in treating patients with soft tissue sarcoma. Hypofractionated radiation therapy delivers higher doses of radiation therapy over a shorter period of time and may kill more tumor cells and have fewer side effects. Giving hypofractionated radiotherapy followed by surgery may allow patients with sarcomas to be treated in a much more rapid and convenient fashion.

This clinical trial investigates factors associated with access to genetic risk assessment, counseling, and testings services. The trial also seeks to refine and evaluate the effectiveness of online tools on improving cancer risk management practices and family communication of genetic test results.
