Alveolar soft part sarcoma.
We report a case of alveolar soft part sarcoma (ASPS) of the thigh with lung metastases in a 22-year-old woman. The findings of digital subtraction angiography (DSA) and MRI contributed to the diagnosis of ASPS. Especially dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI was useful for evaluating the effect of chemoembolotherapy.
