RESUMEN
A 29-year-old male presented with a two-week history of a tender lesion on his right thigh. The lesion was a 1.5 cm erythematous nodule with overlying hemorrhagic crust. Histopathologic examination of a biopsy specimen revealed a highly cellular neoplasm with irregular vesicular nuclei, prominent nucleoli, and scattered mitotic figures. The cells within the lesion were rounded, ovoid and spindle shaped cells with perivascular growth. The architecture and staining pattern of the lesion were most consistent with a diagnosis of malignant myopericytoma, an exceedingly rare malignancy.
