Epithelioid Sarcoma: A Case Report / 대한정형외과학회잡지

ABSTRACT

Epithelioid sarcoma is malignant tumor described by Enzinger, that is likely to be confused with a varety of benign and malignant conditions, especially a granulomatous process, a synovial sarcoma Or an ulerating squamous cell carcinoma. The tumor occurs chiefly in young adult and most commonly affects the soft tissue of the hand, the forearm and the pretibial region. The tumor is characteristically a slowly growing lesion but frequent recurrence is common and metastasis were most frequent in the lung. In this paper, we reported one case which is believed to be epithelioid sarcoma in the forearm.
