    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Pathology
    • Orthopedic Surgery

    Background:

    • Epithelioid sarcoma is a rare malignant soft tissue tumor.
    • It is the third most common soft tissue sarcoma in the upper extremity.
    • First described by Enzinger in 1970, it often causes diagnostic confusion.

    Observation:

    • A case of epithelioid sarcoma in a young man's hand is presented.
    • The tumor exhibited a deceptively harmless appearance.
    • Clinical and microscopic features mimicked an inflammatory process.

    Findings:

    • The presented case caused considerable diagnostic problems.
    • It was initially mistaken for a benign lesion.
    • The tumor's presentation aligns with previously described cases.
