  • Title: Extraskeletal Myxoid Chondrosarcoma of the Foot Clinically Mimicking Plantar Fibromatosis.
    Author: Saraggi D, Salmaso R, Montesco MC, Zamuner C, Tiengo C, Rugge M, Fassan M.
    Journal: Am J Dermatopathol; 2017 Mar; 39(3):e38-e40. PubMed ID: 27655120.
    Abstract:
    Extraskeletal myxoid chondrosarcoma (EMC) is a rare soft tissue sarcoma usually presenting in proximal extremities of middle-aged men. The authors discuss a unique case of EMC, localized in the plantar foot of a 76-year-old woman, clinically suspected as plantar fibromatosis. It is important to avoid misdiagnosis of EMC because of their propensity for late recurrence and their metastatic potential.
