Abstract

Abstract Congenital infantile sarcoma is a rare tumor. Any part of the body can be affected, but upper and lower extremities are common sites of the disease. Diagnosis is reached by clinical presentation, radiological findings, immunohistochemical evaluation and molecular detection of chromosomal abnormality associated with the disease. Differential diagnosis depends on tumor location. Surgical excision is the treatment of choice. Chemotherapy can be of value when complete surgical resection is not possible. Radiotherapy role is limited and needs further evaluation. Here we present a case of huge congenital infantile sarcoma. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case in literature reporting congenital infantile sarcoma arising from the abdominal wall.
