  • Title: Neonatal epithelioid sarcoma: a distinct clinical entity?
    Author: Gupta H, Davidoff AM, Rao BN, Jenkins JJ, Spunt SL.
    Journal: J Pediatr Surg; 2006 Jul; 41(7):e9-e11. PubMed ID: 16818048.
    Abstract:
    Epithelioid sarcoma is a rare soft tissue sarcoma with a propensity for local aggressiveness, regional nodal spread, and pulmonary metastases. We report a case of epithelioid sarcoma in a neonate with bilateral optic nerve hypoplasia who developed liver, kidney, and bone metastases. The unusual presenting features and pattern of disease progression in this patient suggest that a different disease evaluation strategy should be considered for infants with epithelioid sarcoma.
