Classic Type of Epithelioid Sarcoma of the Distal Upper Extremity: Clinical and Oncological Characteristics.

The classic type of ES represents a group of high-grade sarcomas, which affect the dominantly distal upper extremity. Specific clinical, diagnostic, and oncological characteristics make it difficult to diagnose and therapy. Wide tumor resection as a part of multimodal therapy remains a more viable and common treatment option for patients with ES on distal extremities. High rates of lymph node metastasis are typical for ES.
