Secondary spontaneous pneumothorax almost always develops secondary to an underlying lung disease. A pneumothorax secondary to a malignancy is very rare, and is observed most frequently in soft tissue sarcomas. Pazopanib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is used in metastatic soft tissue sarcomas treatment. The rate of pneumothorax that is caused by pazopanib is about 14% in the literature. The pat...

Abstract Background The aim of the study was to assess whether configuration primary soft-tissue sarcoma (STS) on MRI correlates with grade malignancy. Patients and methods 71 patients histologically proven STS were included. Primary examined for configuration, borders, volume MRI. tumors divided into high-grade (G3), intermediate-grade (G2) low-grade (G1) according grading system French Federa...

  Bronchiolo-alveolar carcinoma with subcutaneous chest wall metastasis is a very rare presentation. A case of 36- year-old male with metastatic subcutaneous chest nodule of bronchiolo-alveolar carcinoma, diagnosed by fine needle aspiration cytology, is reported here. Cutaneous metastases are of diagnostic importance because they may be the first manifestation of an undiscovered internal malig...

Angiomatosis, a pathology that may occur in any soft tissue, is typically characterized by vascular proliferation and invasion of adjacent tissues. Although it described as benign lesion, can be challenging malignancy treatment follow-up due to its rich structure frequent recurrence. Here, we present rare case chest wall angiomatosis 46-year-old female patient treated with surgical excision.

conclusions juvenile xanthogranuloma is a cutaneous fibrohistiocytic lesion, which is rarely reported on palms. it is recommended to excise any soft tissue masses in children due to their possible association with malignancy. introduction juvenile xanthogranuloma (jxg) is a non-langerhans-cell histiocytosis, a group of histiocytic proliferative disorders, seen throughout the first two decades o...

Primary soft tissue sarcoma of chest wall is an uncommon lesion. Mass of a chest wall should be considered as malignant until proven otherwise. Myxofibrosarcoma is one of the most aggressive types of soft tissue tumor. Due to its rarity over trunk wall and high possibility of malignancy, an early investigation and diagnosis is crucial. Subsequently, an early excision remains the mainstay of tre...

Almost all cancers can cause distant pleural metastases. However, pleural metastases of soft tissue sarcoma that constitute less than 1% of adult solid malignancy are extremely rare. It is very difficult to distinguish them form sarcomatous malignant mesothelioma on histopathological features. We report a 57 year-old man who presented to us with left chest pain and progressive dyspnea and was d...

Eruption hematoma is a macular elevation in the soft tissue of alveolar mucosa seen nearly during the tooth eruption. Commonly, it does not have any clinical symptoms.

The development of a new soft tissue lesion in an otherwise healthy child, adolescent, or young adult can present many challenges for pediatric or medical oncology teams. Although uncommon, the diagnosis of a soft tissue malignancy should always be considered in the differential diagnosis of persistent pain, even if no mass is palpable. The definitive diagnosis and treatment of a soft tissue ma...
