Epithelioid sarcoma
Diagnosis in short

Epithelioid sarcoma. H&E stain.

LM epithelioid morphology and spindle morphology (predominant pattern dependent on location), +/-prominent nucleolus, zonal necrosis with an irregular border
Subtypes proximal type, distal type
LM DDx carcinoma, rheumatoid nodule, granuloma annulare
IHC INI1 -ve
Site soft tissue - usu. extremities

Clinical history usu. young adults
Symptoms mass lesion
Prevalence rare

Epithelioid sarcoma is a rare malignant soft tissue lesion.

Sarcomas with an epithelioid morphology are covered in epithelioid sarcomas.

General

  • Rare.
  • Adolescents, young adults.
  • Serum CA-125 may be useful for following clinically.[1]

Subclassification:[2]

  • Proximal type:
    • More aggressive.
  • Distal type:

Microscopic

Features:[3]

  • Epithelioid morphology and spindle morphology - which predominates is dependent on location (see subclassification).
  • +/-Prominent nucleolus - distinctive feature.
  • Zonal necrosis with irregular border.
    • Descriptors: "Garland necrosis", necrosis with "scalloped border" = necrotic regions with irregular border.

Subclassification:[2]

  • Proximal-type (proximal location):
    • More epithelioid.
  • Distal-type (distal location):
    • More spindled.
    • Granuloma-like pattern.

Features:[4]

  • INI1 (SMARCB1[5]) -ve.[6]
  • Vimentin +ve.
  • Various keratins +ve.
    • Keratin 8, Keratin 19 +ve.
    • 34betaE12 +ve/-ve.
  • CD34 +ve.
    • Malignant rhabdoid tumour -ve.

Others:

  • S100 -ve (r/o melanoma).
  • CK7 +ve / CK20 -ve.[7]
  • CA-125 +ve.[1][8]
