Hemangiopericytoma of the forearm

الملخص EN

Hemangiopericytomas are rare soft tissue tumors of vascular origin.

They occur in any organ but most frequently have been reported in the extremities.

We report a case of hemangiopericytoma of the left forearm treated with optimal debulking surgery followed by postoperative adjuvant external beam radiotherapy using intensity modulated radiotherapy (IMRT).

The value of recurrence-free survival after adjuvant radiotherapy is discussed.

Currently, the patient is free of disease and disability at a mean follow-up period of 5 years.
