'''Epithelioid sarcoma''' is a rare malignant [[soft tissue lesions|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.<ref name=pmid19756736>{{Cite journal  | last1 = Hoshino | first1 = M. | last2 = Kawashima | first2 = H. | last3 = Ogose | first3 = A. | last4 = Kudo | first4 = N. | last5 = Ariizumi | first5 = T. | last6 = Hotta | first6 = T. | last7 = Umezu | first7 = H. | last8 = Hatano | first8 = H. | last9 = Morita | first9 = T. | title = Serum CA 125 expression as a tumor marker for diagnosis and monitoring the clinical course of epithelioid sarcoma. | journal = J Cancer Res Clin Oncol | volume = 136 | issue = 3 | pages = 457-64 | month = Mar | year = 2010 | doi = 10.1007/s00432-009-0678-1 | PMID = 19756736 }}</ref>

*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.
