RESUMO
Alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) is a rare soft tissue tumor that accounts for 5% of pediatric non-rhabdomyosarcoma soft tissue sarcomas. The disease presents as a indolent asymptomatic mass and affects primarily younger patients. The clinical course is often indolent and late metastases can develop even after prolonged disease-free intervals. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy play a very limited role in the treatment. We report a pediatric case of ASPS with a brief review of the literature.
