There is no significant difference between EOS and other malignant tumors in soft tissue. Localized pain and swelling are the common presenting symptoms. Clinical diagnosis of EOS is difficult, imaging techniques may be helpful and careful, and the histopathological analysis is necessary. The common histological variants of EOS include： osteoblastoma, chondroblastoma, and fibroblastoma, and other unusual subtypes were reported occasionally. It should be distinguished with myositis ossificans, malignant mesenchymoma, giant cell tumor and parosteal osteosarcoma. We present an EOS arising in the penis. The primary site and histological category of the tumor were extremely rare. We hope the case will be helpful to the recognition of clinical signs, iconography and histopathology of EOS.展开更多

Here we report the first case of a retroperitoneal ESO in a 35-year-old pregnant woman. A retroperitoneal ESO was incidentally found at cesarean section. Despite treatment, she rapidly died from wide spread dissemination. We focus on histological characteristics including immunohistochemical results and differential diagnosis of ESO.展开更多
