RESUMO
The alveolar soft-part sarcoma is a rare tumour that has recently been identified. It resembles chemodectomas and arises from primitive nerve cells. It differs from chemodectomas in its location and in its more malignant behaviour. The tumour was highly vascular and similar in appearance to chemodectomas. The author's patient complained of symptoms after an injury that was complicated by the development of myositis ossificans. The possible relationship between trauma and the development of the tumour is discussed. (AU)
