Abstract EN
We report a case of extraskeletal osteosarcoma (ESOS) and autopsy findings.
A 35-year-old man presented with an ossified tumor in the right thigh and lung metastasis.
The lung tumors continued to develop despite multiagent chemotherapy and caused death within 8 months.
Autopsy revealed many secondary lesions in the lungs, especially in the left lung.
Histopathologically, the primary tumor and one of the secondary tumors showed proliferation of spindle-shaped tumor cells focally forming lace-like osteoid material.
Therefore, we made a definite diagnosis of ESOS.
