Clear Cell Sarcoma: A Historical Perspective with Personal Comments
نویسنده
چکیده
The cases described by Dr. Enzinger typically occurred in the foot and knee of young adults, especially women, and were intimately associated with tendons. The main symptom was a mass associated with pain in half of the cases, usually of long duration. The median age at onset of symptoms was 24 years, and the median age at initial surgery 26 years. All masses were solitary at presentation. No joint or bursal involvement was noted and bone erosion was seen in only one case. Tumor sizes ranges from 2 – 6 cm. (median, 4 cm.).
