    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Pathology
    • Orthopedic Surgery

    Background:

    • Epithelioid sarcoma is a rare soft tissue sarcoma.
    • It typically affects the extremities and has a variable prognosis.
    • Intramedullary extension has not been previously reported.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report a case of epithelioid sarcoma with unusual medullary cavity extension.
    • To highlight the importance of considering epithelioid sarcoma in the differential diagnosis of extremity masses.
    • To discuss potential implications for prognosis and treatment.

    Main Methods:

    • Case report detailing clinical presentation, imaging, and histopathological findings.
    • Review of relevant literature on epithelioid sarcoma and its behavior.

    Main Results:

    • The case demonstrated epithelioid sarcoma extending into the medullary cavity of a long bone.
    • This extension represents a previously unreported feature.
    • The prognosis may be altered by this intramedullary involvement.

    Conclusions:

    • Epithelioid sarcoma should be included in the differential diagnosis of bone and soft tissue tumors of the extremities.
    • Intramedullary extension may impact the prognosis.
    • Early diagnosis and complete surgical resection are essential for achieving a cure.
