摘要
Sclerosing epithelioid fibrosarcoma (SEF) is an extremely rare subtype of sarcoma that appears histologically low-grade yet usually has a clinically aggressive course with a high rate of local recurrence and distant metastasis. However, these recurrences and metastases often occur years after initial treatment. Metastases can be to the lung as well as extra-pulmonary sites. In this case report, we discuss a patient who developed SEF in the deep soft tissue with metastases. This patient underwent checkpoint inhibitor therapy, with disease response. Thus, SEF is a sarcoma subtype with a unique tumor biology, and immunotherapy may be a promising avenue for treatment.
