Abstract

We report two cases of epithelioid sarcoma (ES), including one with a 32-year follow-up. Difficult diagnostic problems often arise in this infrequent form of soft tissue sarcoma that predominantly involves the extremities and usually affects young individuals. Immunohistochemistry cannot elucidate histogenesis but does provide helpful information for the differential diagnosis.
