  • Title: High-grade spindle cell sarcoma arising in rhytidectomy scar: a case report.
    Author: Jones D, Earley MJ.
    Journal: J Plast Reconstr Aesthet Surg; 2010 May; 63(5):e448-50. PubMed ID: 19717353.
    Abstract:
    A 53-year-old woman developed a high-grade spindle cell sarcoma in a rhytidectomy incision. Early diagnosis was confounded by the presence of a recent surgical incision. This case report underlines the importance of maintaining a low threshold for tissue biopsy. It also demonstrates the capacity for free vascularised nerve graft to withstand the effects of radiotherapy.
