RESUMO
Spindle cell sarcoma (SCS) is a rare malignant tumour which can arise in bone and accounts for 2%-5% of primary bone cancer cases. Distant metastasis occurs predominantly in the lungs. However, metastasis to the soft palate, to the best of our knowledge, has never been previously reported. In this case report, we describe a unique presentation of soft palate metastasis in a patient with a history of high-grade SCS of the bone who presented with progressive dysphagia and nausea and vomiting who underwent surgical excision for palliation of symptoms.
