“…Therefore, the incidence of primary osteosarcoma occurring in the lung and pulmonary artery is even rarer. Unlike osteogenic osteosarcoma, which affects patients in the second decade of life, extraskeletal osteosarcoma has an older average onset age and is slightly more common in males than in females (3,5). The most common site for extraskeletal osteosarcoma is the thigh, followed by the upper extremities and retroperitoneum, but the most extraordinary site is the lung (6, 7).…”

“…There have been few reported cases of ESOS in the literature with only 300 cases reported since it was first described by Wilson in 1941 1 8 . Although the lower extremities and retroperitoneum are common sites, ESOSs have been reported in other organs such as the larynx, esophagus, breast, liver, duodenum, kidney, urinary bladder, orbit, and skin 1 4 5 7 10 . However, a pancreatic ESOS has not yet been reported in the literature.…”

“…In one case series, the median survival time was measured as 8 months for metastatic ESOSs with doxorubicin-based chemotherapy 8 . Metastases commonly occur in the lungs, bones, lymph nodes, brain, liver, and skin 4 . Metastasis to the skin is an exceedingly rare and known to be a sign of widespread metastases 1 .…”
