Nodular epitheloid sarcoma of the upper limb. A case report and review of the literature.

Epitheloid sarcoma is a rare malignant soft tissue sarcoma. We present a 36-year-old male patient with a primary tumour on his wrist and subcutaneous spread in a sporotrichoid pattern along the upper extremity. Early surgical treatment with micrographic control of all margins provides best long term outcome as long as a solitary lesion is present. In case of cutaneous and internal spread of the disease treatment options are only palliative. Early diagnosis, therefore, is most crucial.
