Abstract

Extraskeletal osteosarcoma (ESOS) is a rare soft‑tissue sarcoma that is treated with surgical resection, chemotherapy and radiotherapy; however, as it is now considered to be radiation resistance, it is associated with conflicting management principles and poor outcomes. A multimodality approach is currently used to treat ESOS, which entails the incorporation of multidrug chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy coupled with surgery to obtain the best outcome; however, there are many factors that influence the treatment effects and clinical outcomes of ESOS. In the present study, a case of an 81‑year‑old man who suffered from primary ESOS in the subcutaneous tissue of the right‑hand side of the neck was reported. The patient was treated several times with partial resection and once with radiotherapy, and was still living following 3 years of follow‑up. Thus, the present case report demonstrated that surgical resection and postoperative radiotherapy regimens may be favourable in the short term with a disease‑free survival of ~15 months; however, patients are prone to relapse.
