Abstract

Epithelioid sarcoma (ES) is a rare, clinically polymorphic tumor that afflicts the dermal and subcutaneous region of distal extremity of young adults. In the distal extremity, the involvement of pubic and inguinal region is very rare. We present a case of an epithelioid sarcoma of the pubic region, which was managed, with a combination of upfront surgery and adjuvant therapy, and is presently disease free 5 years after completion of treatment.
