Soft tissue tumours are a highly heterogeneous group of tumours that are classified on a histogenetic basis according to the adult tissue they resemble&#13;
Objective: To study the incidence of Soft tissue tumors at Tertiary Care Teaching Hospital and to study the morphological incidence of various Soft tissue tumors among different age groups and sex.&#13;
Methods: In the Present Study, all operated cases; excised biopsies and resected specimens are taken into consideration. After processing detail microscopic examination was carried out.&#13;
Results: The peak age of incidence of soft tissue tumors was between 3rd to 4th decades of age, with the male: female ratio 1.37:1. Benign tumors (89.3%) are more common than malignant tumors (10%). Most common soft tissue tumor is Lipomatous tumors.&#13;
Conclusion: The study can contribute to epidemiologic knowledge of soft tissue tumors.&#13;
