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.
DDx:
- Carcinoma.
- Rheumatoid nodule.
- Granuloma annulare.
- Malignant rhabdoid tumour.
