Extraosseous osteogenic sarcoma of the mediastinum occurring in a Chinese patient.
Osteogenic sarcoma can occur rarely in soft tissues, predominantly of the proximal lower limbs. The mediastinum is a less common site, with only five reports in the literature. We report a case occurring in a young Chinese man and review the literature.
