Abstract
In recent years, a number of new soft tissue tumor entities have been described that occur in the skin only, or that also occur in other sites but form clinically and pathologically distinct subsets when arising in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. These include a variety of mesenchymal lineages and have variable malignant potential, although superficial malignant soft tissue tumors generally have a more favorable outcome than their more deeply located counterparts. This article reviews the clinical and pathologic features and differential diagnoses of atypical vascular lesion, postradiation cutaneous angiosarcoma, myoepithelioma, myopericytoma, and perivascular epithelioid cell tumor.Entities:
