A rare case of epithelioid sarcoma was presented. To our knowledge this is the 25th case reported in Japan.
A 36-year-old man was admitted to our hospital complaining of diffuse swelling with pain in the right upper arm. Although at 30 years of age the patient had been aware of painless nodule about 1.0cm in diameter on his right forearm, he hadn't sought medical advice for 5 years. At 35 years he underwent wide excision of the tumor in other hospital, but local recurrence was found 6 months after the operation. He had eventually agreed to reoperation, but died of metastatic pleural effusion 11 months after forequarter amputation.
