Abstract

Alveolar soft part sarcoma is a slowly growing malignant tumor with high potential of metastasis. It occurs most frequently in children and young adults. Cytogenetically, it is characterized by a specific translocation, der(17)t(X;17) (p11；q25). Because of its rarity, treatment is not yet standardized. The combination of surgery and radiotherapy remains the mainstay of the treatment.
